Description
The National Library of Medicine produces MEDLINE, the premier bibliographic database covering the fields of medicine, nursing, dentistry, veterinary medicine, the health care system, and the preclinical sciences. The PubMed database provides free of charge access to all MEDLINE citations; in-process citations (PreMEDLINE); out-of-scope citations from MEDLINE journals; and citations that precede the date that a journal was selected for MEDLINE indexing. Users of PubMed can also register for MyNCBI, which allows for: Saving Searches (save search strategies to get updates - including automatic e-mailed updates), setting up filters to group your retrieval by topics of interest to you, and save useful citations. To register for MyNCBI, go to the PubMed main search page and select Register from the MyNCBI box located at the top right hand side of the page.
