Abstract
Discovery services such as Primo and Summon are all the rage. However, they have their challenges and effectiveness, especially when searching the nursing literature. Presenters simultaneously searched these two products and compared results against strategically searching nursing-specific databases CINAHL and PubMed/Medline. Attend this session to see what we discovered.
