Resources for Residents and Interns

eResources
Interns and residents in PNWU-affiliated residency programs may request access to a limited set of PNWU’s licensed databases. Please refer to Accessing Licensed Electronic Resources for more information and to request a login. Permissions are limited by our vendor agreements, and are subject to change without notice. Accounts expire at the end of your residency.

Once your PNWU login has been created, you can access the approved databases through our proxy server. Please make sure you follow the instructions sent by PNWU Technology Services to create a secure password before you attempt to log in to licensed resources.

Note: the PubMed@PNWU link will not work with your resident login. You can access many full text articles when you search directly in MEDLINE Complete or CINAHL Complete. You can also search with pubmed.gov and order by email (see below). If you don’t have a PNWU login, you can still order articles through PNWU Library, provided your affiliated resident status can be verified.

For best results, please use the links to resources listed below.
