Nurse Author & Editor is an international publication dedicated to nurse authors, editors and reviewers. It was first published in 1991 as a print publication but it is now published by Wiley- Blackwell as a free quarterly online publication at www.NurseAuthorEditor.com.

Nurse Author & Editor is edited by Charon Pierson. Charon is an experienced editor and currently edits the Journal of the American Academy of Nurse Practitioners.

Each issue of Nurse Author & Editor consists of articles offering advice on writing quality manuscripts, avoiding rejection, finding publishing opportunities, editing and reviewing. Each issue also has a section containing short articles to update readers on new developments in nursing journals and journal publishing.

Systematic Reviews encompasses all aspects of the design, conduct and reporting of systematic reviews. The journal aims to publish high quality systematic review products including systematic review protocols, systematic reviews related to a very broad definition of health, rapid reviews, updates of already completed systematic reviews, and methods research related to the science of systematic reviews, such as decision modeling. The journal also aims to ensure that the results of all well-conducted systematic reviews are published, regardless of their outcome.

Like many major health care associations, the American Nurses Association (ANA) has acknowledged that social media is here to stay, and has released a resource to help nurses safely and effectively navigate the ever-expanding world of social networking.

The ANA’s principles are not binding; they’re intended to help nurses understand the benefits and the risks of social networking so they don’t undermine their own professional reputation or their profession.
