PubMed Redesign

You may have noticed that PubMed looks a little different. The site went through a redesign to simplify the interface and make it easier to use. The same functionalities are still in place, they just may have moved. Read the announcement and see all the changes here: http://www.nlm.nih.gov/pubs/techbull/so09/so09_pm_redesign.html

Some changes to note:

• The main search box now appears at the very top of the page.
  
• Search Limits, History and the Details tab have been moved under "Advanced Search" at the top of the page.
  
• Sign in to MyNCBI along the top right.
  
• Tools and resources previously found along the left-hand side menu are now in three columns in the middle of the page.
  
• The Single Citation Matcher is under the category "PubMed Tools".
  
• There is a simplified Abstract format, combining the old AbstractPlus and Citation formats.
  
• The SFX@TSRI button remains in the right hand column of the abstract.
  

NIH Public Access Policy - Publisher Database

Check out the Library's new publisher policies database to assist you in complying with the NIH Public Access Policy. We've started with the top 100 journals TSRI authors publish in.

If you are unfamiliar with the NIH Public Access Policy and are submitting papers funded by NIH, please see the Library's informational websiteor go directly to NIH's site.

The NIH Public Access Policy ensures that the public has access to the published results of NIH funded research. It requires scientists to submit final peer-reviewed journal manuscripts that arise from NIH funds to the digital archive PubMed Central upon acceptance for publication. To help advance science and improve human health, the Policy requires that these papers are accessible to the public on PubMed Central no later than 12 months after publication.
