PubMedThe PubMed database is one of the most powerful and unique free biomedical databases that exists! Yes, Google Scholar is an effective tool for health information, but PubMed is more current and comprehensive.
Any library providing health information services should have a librarian on staff familiar with PubMed. PubMed is not an intuitive database. The most effective way to master this database is to attend an in-person class.
Instructors will teach how to search effectively, understand the search results, and customize the database. Participants will learn that there are aids so one need not necessarily understand complex or sophisticated medical terminology, or even know the exact spelling of medical terms. |
