MEDLINE-Related Resources

These pages are based on an appendix from Katcher BS. MEDLINE: a guide to effective searching in PubMed and other interfaces. 2nd ed. San Francisco: Ashbury Press; 2006. They contain links (not possible from the printed pages -- see sample book pages) and are continually updated.

MEDLINE is a bibliographic database that is produced by the National Library of Medicine. Because MEDLINE is so large (more than 13 million records) and so exquisitely organized, it is generally considered to be the premiere index to the world's medical literature of biomedical journal articles. PubMed is the most frequently used version of MEDLINE.

These pages describe a number of MEDLINE-related resources on the Web. Some of these are within the National Library of Medicine’s Web site, which is among the most important health sites on the Web. The National Library of Medicine recently created a page that links to all of their MEDLINE/PubMed resources.
