The two Grand Canyon University (GCU) Library Scholarly databases that will help me in finding the best research articles to support my evidence-based-proposal are CINAHL, and PubMed. They have lots of health books, journals, EBP care sheets, continuing education modules, etc. These databases are accurate, their information is peer reviewed. CINAHL is very good for nursing searches and PubMed is good for overall health science searches.

GCU’s library CINAHL and PubMed are better databases source of information than Google Scholar or a general internet search because of the following advantages they offer, such as:

· Ability to search subject area.

· Ability to sort results according to date and importance

· Ability to sort results by material type

· Ability to limit search by a variety of criteria

· Ability to give free full text of articles

 Google Scholar database does not offer the ability to search subject area or easy way of sorting articles in the search result list. It does not clearly sort type of material into academic journal, magazine, newspaper, etc. Also, it does not have full criteria to limit search result.

GCU library has 99 databases, different articles, so many eBooks, expert information finders and citation creation. They give access to these resource to all student for research and other academic purposes.
