Welcome to the subject guide for Nursing
This page is a starting point for
GMIT students interested in, or studying nursing. It is basically
a web site that provides access to a number of sources of information and
services targeted towards the nursing and health subject areas.
Books
Each book that GMIT library acquires is assigned a Dewey number that identifies its subject matter. This number can be found on the spine of the book. As Dewey is a numerical system the books are arranged on the shelves in numerical order. The following is an outline of the Dewey numbers that are relevant to business.
If we do not stock a book that is on your recommended reading list or you think we should have extra copies of core reading materials please let us know by filling out this form and we will do our best to acquire the items requested. |
