PubMed Redesign

The new PubMed has arrived.

Major changes include:

Limits, History, and Details tabs have been consolidated into the Advanced Search.

MeSH terms available on the Abstract Display. [No more Citation display or AbstractPlus display.]

Results filters have been moved to the right.

The link to the Clipboard only displays if there are items in the Clipboard.

Searching capabilities (automatic term mapping; etc.) remain the same.

More information can be found in NLM’s Technical Bulletin and in PubMed’s tutorials

Have questions about the redesign? Can’t figure out what the heck is going on? Contact Kate.
