Happy 25th Birthday, Medline! Happy 10th Birthday, PubMed!
On October 27th 1971, the National Library of Medicine (NLM) launched Medline Online. Today, the Medline database covers approximately 4500 biomedical journals and has over 12 million journal citations and abstracts from the mid-1960's to the present. Since 1996, the NLM has provided free Medline access via PubMed. The usage has increased from two million PubMed searches per month to three million searches per day.
The UM Health Sciences Libraries provide access to PubMed with UM SFX links to the University Library's journal subscriptions. To learn more about PubMed, please take the NLM PubMed tutorial or register for the upcoming PHLI workshop on Tuesday, November 28, 2006 from 10:00 AM - 11:30 AM.
Contact PHLI Reference Services by calling (734) 763-5109, by emailing sph.reference@umich.edu, or by stopping by the library. Reference services are available 10:00am - 4:00pm , Monday - Friday.
