3 Background CINAHL (Cumulative Index for Nursing and Allied Health Literature) provides indexing for 2,960 journals from the fields of nursing and allied health (including unique search terms). It offers complete coverage of English-language nursing journals and publications from the National League for Nursing and the American Nurses’ Association. The Index covers nursing, biomedicine, health sciences librarianship, alternative/ complementary medicine, consumer health and 17 allied health disciplines.
