APA Question

Q: How do I cite something from the Nursing Reference Center Plus database?

APA Answer

A:

Nursing Reference Center Plus contains a variety of resources including “Quick Lessons,” “Evidence Based Care Sheets,” “Patient Handouts,” and more that are only available in this database.  Creating a reference for resources found here should follow this format:

 

Author, A. A., Author, B. B., & Author, C. C. (Year, Month Day). Title of article: Article subtitle. Nursing Reference

Center Plus. https://www.permalinkURL

 

You can find the information needed to create your reference at the top of the Nursing Reference Center article record. The permalink/URL can be accessed by clicking on the "Permalink" icon on the right side of the page.  All pieces of information needed to create a Nursing Reference Center Plus citation are outlined in red below.

The citation for this sample article is:

 

Schub, T., & Parks-Chapman, J. (2021, July 9). Diabetes mellitus, type 2. Nursing Reference Center

Plus. https://search.ebscohost.com/login.aspx?direct=true&db=nup&AN=T701050&site=nup-live&scope=site 

 

 

Note: The Nursing Reference Center Plus portion of the citation should always be included because these resources are only available from the database Nursing Reference Center Plus.
