An archival list of ‘keystone’ articles written by approximately 100 Nursing Informatics (NI) pioneers is now available for review. At least one published article written by a NI Pioneer was compiled as an example of the early writings on ‘Computer Applications in Nursing’ now called ‘Nursing Informatics.’  Starting in the early 1970s and on through 1990s, this list of journal articles demonstrates the depth and breadth of NI topics as highlighted by the pioneers’ article titles as well as the titles of the journals publishing the articles.  The titles focus on all areas of the nursing profession, namely, nursing practice, nursing administration, nursing education and nursing research.  These articles illustrate that Nursing Informatics, this new specialty, was on the forefront of the nursing profession prior to be recognized by the American Nurses Association in 1991.

The articles are available at the Texas Medical Center (TMC) Library in Houston, TX.
