My small healthcare college library is looking at online tools to help students prepare for licensing exams and other healthcare-related exams. For example, NCLEX, Complete Phlebotomy Exam, Davies Ultrasound Physics Review, etc.

Cost is a very important factor for subscription resources.

I look forward to learning from others' experiences.

I've found that Learning Express has a lot of those books, and they're good ones, not 'off brand' study guides so to speak. But... although I don't know the exact amount, I feel like it's also a fairly pricey solution, unfortunately.

If you are a member of a library system or consortium in Georgia, you may have access to Learning Express already. The Texas State Library and Archives provides databases (for a fee, of course) to libraries.

I actually do have Learning Express, but not being familiar with it, I didn't realize it had test prep materials, THANKS!

Thanks so much, I actuallu have access to Learning Express through my state consortium, but I'm not familiar with it and didn't realize it had test prep. I will become familiar with it asap!

>5 cambridgehealthatl: It does. Not everything of course, but, from what I've seen it has a fair bit for sure. Sometimes services like Overdrive or I think 3M has an ebook platform too. Sometimes they'll have a few test prep ebooks as well.
