This guide is aimed at Nursing students. As your Librarian, I can help you find and reference resources. I can provide information literacy support, copyright advice, and signpost other university services.
Celebrate the festive season with our specially curated Christmas Collection! Whether you're looking for heartwarming stories, seasonal recipes, craft ideas, or simply a cosy read for the holidays, our library has something for everyone. Here is an example of searching our collection.
Explore a wide range of resources, including:
Whether you're winding down after a busy term or looking to get into the holiday spirit, our collection is here to bring warmth, joy, and inspiration. Visit our library catalogue to discover the full selection and make this Christmas a season of stories, creativity, and connection.
Over time, I will add particular resources for social care, and legal and ethical matters to this guide. Until then, please see:
The Health Subject Guide is for social care, social policy, and community nursing resources.
The Law Subject Guide is for legal and ethical content. One key resource from the law guide is Lexis+.
The Communication and collaboration tools can help you communicate more effectively in digital environments and collaborate smoothly on shared documents and projects.
LibKey Nomad is a great tool which helps you to easily find scholarly journal articles. When you are searching on the web, Nomad lets you know if any of the content is available from our library subscriptions or open access alternatives.
All you need to do is add an extension to your web browser.
Go to libkeynomad.com, select your browser at the bottom of the page and follow the instructions to add the extension. When prompted, select London Metropolitan University as your organisation.
When searching the web look out for the Nomad button to link you to the article.
LibKey.io provides access to journal articles using either the digital object identifier (DOI) or PubMed Identifier (PMID). If the article is available through the Library’s subscriptions or it is Open Access you will be able to access the PDF or the article link.
If you don't know the DOI or PMID you can search for journals and journal articles using Library Search. See Understanding journals - Finding information - LibGuides at London Metropolitan University for more guidance.
Cite Them Right is an online platform that can help you with your referencing. It provides clear guidance on how to reference with lots of examples. It covers a range of different referencing styles and you can test your knowledge with their tutorial.
To access: go to Cite Them Right > click Log in > click Log in via your institution > search for and select London Metropolitan University > sign in with your usual university email and password.
Choose your referencing style to get started or take a look at their videos and tutorial.
Led by the Academic Liaison Librarian team, these workshops will help you develop your skills for uni and beyond.
