For nurses who want to publish their work, this is an excellent resource!
I will be adding it to CINAHLsources, which includes other sources of
journal information for nursing and allied health. By the way, Sheryl was
once a school of nursing librarian....

If you are the editor or publisher of a journal not listed, the site
includes a request to add links option.

Good luck to the writers out there - Peg
