Library upgrades to CINAHL Ultimate

The Library has upgraded its CINAHL subscription to CINAHL Ultimate, which provides full text for more of the most used journals in the CINAHL index than any other database. It covers more than 50 nursing specialties and includes quick lessons, evidence-based care sheets, CEU modules and research instruments. Additionally, it includes rigorous curation and indexing of open access (OA) journals, which has resulted in a growing collection of 1,253 active global OA journals.

Ancestry® Library Edition arrives

The UTSW Library has recently acquired the database Ancestry® Library Edition (ProQuest). This database is perfect for both the casual researcher of genealogy and the expert. It is the library version of the paid Ancestry subscription but with a few differences.

  • Users are not allowed to save items to a new or existing family tree, they may email items or save them to a flash drive.
  • Forums and advice on how to search for difficult family members are available, as well as forms to print to build your own family tree.
  • Users may search records from around the world, but please note that records are not translated from their original language.
