Nursing Publications & Subscriptions. Are they worth buying?

Of course, I know the importance of basing practice on research to keep up to date with new issues and all that - we don't need to get into it right now. I was just wondering if the subscriptions that we can pay for i.e. Magazines etc. such as the Nursing Times are worth parting money for. Can you find similar online? Do you think that it is worth paying for these sort of research and articles because they may present themselves to be more reliable than say one we might find online? i.e. more reputable. I was just wondering about this and others' thoughts on this sort of thing and if so could you share some links to point me and others in the right direction of relevant ones that may not have been listed?
I just do Nursing 2014 and I get it from an on-line seller who is way cheaper than the publisher.

I recommend subscribing the leading journal in your particular specialty. Maybe a second journal (e.g. the one from you country's leading nursing organization). But no need to spend a lot of money on several. And if your employer gives you online access, then there is no need to buy any.

As to the idea that random online posts could be "more reliable," it is unlikely that whoever is posting them puts all submissions through thorough peer review, editorial revisions, fact checking, and the like. A reputable journal does that.I get several journals. Two that are delivered electronically only, having ceased printing and mailing hard copies to save money. Advantages: Both now include live links to resources. I still get a few in hard copy/print, but even those are available online. They are all the same publications as the hard copy versions, just easier to load on my iPad , and have the same editorial boards and policies they always had.

I started getting a nursing journal way back when there was no online option and stopped when I could no longer afford much of anything. At the time, I also considered that I no longer had a place to store the copies and didn't want to part with them. Nowadays it is too easy to access appropriate content online and I still have no place to maintain a library of hard copies.
