Our periodicals and journals will now be maintained by Alvernia and accessible to allied health students for research purposes. ALIN is one of several cataloging systems that allow library patrons to search for information among participating libraries.

Professional journals are highly valued in our Bachelor of Science in nursing program for research, especially for information on nursing specialities.
