Though the look and \u201cfeel\u201d of the EBSCOhost interface is different from that of CINAHL\u2019s current interface, Ovid, users will continue to have access to CINAHL\u2019s familiar search tools. Below is a table listing the names (and functions) of selected search tools available in Ovid CINAHL, and their equivalents in EBSCOhost CINAHL.<\/p>\n<p>To access CINAHL EBSCOhost, go to the <a href=\"http:\/\/www.hsls.pitt.edu\/\">HSLS home<\/a> page.  Type \u201cCINAHL\u201d into the <em>search.HSLS<\/em> text box and click on the Search button. At the top of your search results, find the HSLS Electronic Resources box \u2013 it will contain a link that takes you to EBSCOhost CINAHL.<\/p>\n<table class=\"MsoTableGrid\" style=\"border: medium
