- New tutorials about the Get it! Button are now available: http://libguides.wustl.edu/get_it. Use Get It! to access fulltext content or request articles when we don't have them online or in paper.
- My NCBI has been redesigned. More info | 2 minute video tutorial. My NCBI is one way to ensure that you have WU Get it! buttons available when you search PubMed, set up search alerts and saved searches, etc.
- LigerCat isn't new but I think it's worth mentioning occasionally. This is a special interface to PubMed which allows display of occurrence-weighted tag [MeSH heading]clouds [MeSH headings]. LigerCat also has a publication data histogram feature. More info.
- PubMed and beyond: a survey of web tools for searching biomedical literature compares 28 PubMed derivatives. (Open access article from Database 2011 doi: 10.1093/database/baq036) PubMed derivatives at a glance: http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/CBBresearch/Lu/search/
- For a preview of the new Web of Science interface, click on "DISCOVER the new Web of Knowledge now!" on the upper right. Improvements will include left hand truncation of search terms, full author name searching (instead of reliance on initials), automatic searching for institutional name variants, and much more. Full implementation is expected in July.
