Nursing: Books & eBooks

Books & eBooks

Books and eBooks are great resources to utilise in order to learn about new topics, and areas you may be less familiar with. Books focused on particular subjects will help you build a solid base understanding; whereas a handbook or encyclopedia will give an even broader, more introductory summary which you can use as a starting point.

This section of your Nursing Research Guide introduces you to some databases you can use to search for eBooks, as well as information about which areas of the Library you can find physical books in.

You can also use AskAway, or visit the Research Desk at BCIT Library, if you would like help finding eBooks or Books on a particular topic.

Nursing Faculty:

  1. The Library holds a small collection of Nursing textbooks for Faculty:
    • View the collection here
    • Ask at the Library's Service Desk if you would like to access/borrow any title from the Faculty Collection
       
  2. Detailed information about each title in the current BSN Required Booklist can be found here
