CINAHL and SPORTDiscus Now Easier to Use

We are pleased to announce that using the Thompson Library’s CINAHL and SPORTDiscus products has just become easier. Until recently, the Thompson Library had separate subscriptions to CINAHL Plus with Full Text and its supplementary database CINAHL Select, as well as SPORTDiscus with Full Text and its supplement SPORTDiscus Select. It was possible to search each database and its supplement simultaneously, but with some loss of flexibility in search techniques.

EBSCO, the publisher of these databases, has now integrated the content of CINAHL Select into CINAHL Plus with Full Text, and the content of SPORTDiscus Select into SPORTDiscus with Full Text. You will now be able to access the content of each set of databases searching a single resource. I have removed the links to CINAHL Select and SPORTDiscus Select from the library’s website.

If you have any questions about the transition, please contact Paul Streby, the Thompson Library webmaster.
