Hi there! I'm Jen Bonnet, your librarian for Nursing. I've created this online guide to assist you - students, faculty, staff, and community members - with the various information needs you may have. This online guide is dynamic. If there are tools, resources, or approaches to thinking about your work that you would like to see addressed, please don't hesitate to let me know. Keep in mind that I'd love to help you with your research projects! You can reach out to me at jenbonnet@maine.edu
