Nursing Education and Career Development: A Bibliography of Resources in the Erwin Library, Wayne Community College

Scope of the Bibliography:

Internet Resources are completely annotated and have been selected in cooperation with the WCC Nursing Faculty.

Other Databases lists stand-alone databases that include materials relevant to nursing education and career development. These databases can be accessed by clicking on the "Other Databases" link under Other Research Resources Links on the Erwin Library homepage.

Books listed as part of the General Collection may be checked out by any Erwin Library registered patron, faculty, staff or student for twenty-one days, with one renewal. Books listed as part of the Reference Collection should be used within the Erwin Library only, and photocopies may be made at fifteen cents a page.

General Collection and Reference books in this bibliography have been divided into categories according to the Brandon Hill Selected List. Though the Brandon Hill Selected List is no longer updated, having been replaced by the Doody's Core Titles list, we use these categories because they best represent the different areas of the nursing field. Doody's Core Titles is divided into medical subject categories that are too broad for a bibliography focused on the field of nursing.

Permalinks to access available ebook versions of print books held by the library are listed below the citation for the print version; any variation in edition between the print book held and available ebook is noted.

Audiovisuals listed in this bibliography in physical media format (i.e. DVD or VHS copies) are owned by the Erwin Library and may be checked out only by a WCC faculty member for up to a week for use in his or her classroom. Also, the WCC Educational Support and Technology Department may be contacted by the faculty member to make a personal, educational copy of the film, which the faculty member may use in any subsequent class presentations instead of having to repeatedly check out the original video recording.

Many more digital video titles on nursing are available are available in the Films on Demand video streaming resource, which can be accessed and searched using the WCC Single Search aggregate database on the Erwin Library webpage at: (click the checkbox for the Videos category), or from other digital video resources such as those on the Erwin Library webpage at: . These other digital video resources include the Nursing Digital Library and Video on Demand (Insight Media titles) databases, as well as the Nursing Education in Video (Medcom-Trainex titles) database. Only a very small sample of these digital videos is listed in this bibliography.

To search these digital video databases you may use the Library of Congress Subject Headings listed in this bibliography as search terms, as well as keywords. The links in these entries are static, or permanent access, URLs, which may also be listed in Moodle class pages. A user outside of the Erwin Library will be prompted to enter his or her Erwin Library card barcode number for access to watch
