Gale Announces New Resource Designed to Support Today’s Nursing Students

Nursing Resource Center Provides Current, Reliable, Applicable Information for Future Nurses

FARMINGTON HILLS, Mich., June 22, 2007 – Gale announces the release of Nursing Resource Center, an online resource created for nursing students at community colleges, universities, vocational or technical high schools, and public libraries supporting these schools across the United States.

Nursing Resource Center provides authoritative information written in accessible language for students completing research papers and class assignments and those preparing for their clinical experiences as they learn how to care for and treat patients.  Because it is available on Gale's PowerSearch platform, this resource has one easy-to-use interface that brings together important titles from Gale and Macmillan with excellent, thorough, nursing-specific texts from Thomson Delmar.  Additionally, relevant journal results from top publications in the field and animated depictions of the human anatomy complement the core reference texts.

“The field of nursing is growing at an incredible rate,” said Jay Flynn, publisher of Gale’s health titles.  “We worked with industry professionals who develop and know nursing curricula to create a resource that offers premier supplemental reference material geared to the education and research needs of nursing students.”
