A new feature now available in [the PubMed-  MyNCBI option] My Bibliography facilitates the management of publication compliance with the National Institutes of Health (NIH)Public Access Policy.

From the new Awards View eRA Commons users are able to see whether their publications are compliant with the Policy, start the manuscript submission process, associate their NIH extramural awards with their publications, and designate delegates to manage their bibliography via My NCBI.

[For information about eRA accounts, please contact  the Research and Sponsored Office Programs for your campus (Main Campus: 530-2844; HSC:  383-4252).]

Detailed information about this feature (including screen shots) is available at My NCBI: Managing Compliance with the NIH Public Access Policy Using My Bibliography.

An overview of the NIH public access policy is available here.

Please do not hesitate to contact Mulford Reference Assistance with your information and reseach needs.
This includes any questions about NIH public access policy.
We will be happy to find the relevant NIH and UT campus resources.

Pubmed has recently changed a few items in the search pages as well as MyNCBI. These changes will be reflected in the library’s Using PubMed help sheet.

Here is a summary of the recent changes

PubMed Home Page
The homepage will also include a link to the Clipboard (to temporarily save citations) if citations have been add.

Limits Related Changes
The Limits page is now available from a link above the search box on all PubMed pages, including the PubMed homepage.  Click here for an illustration (Figure 1).  More information about Limits may be found through Using PubMed and PubMed Help – Limits.

Search results page
The Limits Activated message is now directly above the results summary line on search results, and under the search box on the homepage and Advanced Search page. Click here for an illustration (Figure 3).
When one selects limits for a search, the limits will remain for any search in the same PubMed search session. The Limits Activated message is a good reminder of limits that are activated. The limits may be deactivated by clicking on the associated “Remove” button.

Advanced Search (examples here in figures 4, 5, and 6 )
**On the Advanced Search page, a Search Builder  replaces the Search by Author, Journal, Publication Date, and more and Index of Fields and Field Values sections. One may add search boxes by clicking on AND, OR, or NOT underneath the search box.

** The Limit by Topics, Languages, and Journal Groups section was removed — replaced by the new Limits page. The Limits page is accessible through any search results page (listing of citations) as well as the Change link in Limits Activated.

**Publication date limits may be entered in either the Limits page or through Search Builder.

My NCBI recent changes
My NCBI users can now turn off the Search details on PubMed search results pages. Under My NCBI Preferences, click the Search Details link. Select On or Off, and click Save.
This option is especially useful in displaying and saving PubMed results without specific search details as MeSH subject headings.

Please do not hesitate to contact Mulford Reference Assistance with any questions.
Remember that we have PubMed sessions, but are happy to provide tutorials on PubMed (as well as any database we have access to), and perform literature searches (details here).

Elsevier recently  announced that all research articles in its flagship collection of Cell Press journals will be published online in the new Article of the Future  format on www.cell.com.

The University of Toledo Libraries subscribes to eleven (11)  Cell Press journals, including Cancer Cell and Current Biology.
Each title is linked to both a subscription through OhioLINK and an archived based subsription through Cell Press.|
The subscription through OhioLINK version does not include Article of the Future.
The subscription through  Cell Press only includes articles up to 1 year ago. It is unclear at this time if the Cell Press subscription will include the feature Article of the Future. Stay tuned for further developments!

However, In celebration of the launch and to encourage user feedback, Article of the Future articles are accessible for free for Cell Press’ flagship title, Cell, on External link www.cell.com, for the first four issues of 2010. (These articles are also available through through any of the titles at the University of Toledo Libraries catalog item for Cell Press Journals).

Successful ideas from this project are planned to be rolled-out across Elsevier’s portfolio of 2,000 journals available on ScienceDirect, the world’s largest scientific, technical and medical database.

One of the key features of Article of the Future functionality is a tabbed navigation structure through the Introduction, Results, Figures and Discussion sections.
Readers will also experience a graphical abstract and a highlights section on the landing page of each article, complimenting the abstract text by creating a quickly reviewable visual summary and bullet points. Selected articles take advantage of integrated multimedia by featuring PaperFlicks, a video tour of an article’s content.

Here are links to several Articles of the Future:

**Deciphering the Late Biosynthetic Steps of Antimalarial Compound FR-900098

**Sarcolemmal ATP-Sensitive K⁺ Channels Control Energy Expenditure Determining Body Weight

**The Polarisome Is Required for Segregation and Retrograde Transport of Protein Aggregates
       (Paper Clip link includes video interview with the authors)

Please direct any comments about Article of the Future to us through MulfordReference@utoledo.edu or any of the contact options at Ask a Health Science Librarian.

As always, please do not hesitate to contact us at the Mulford Library with your informational and reference needs.

[From Elsevier’s “Article of the Future” is Now Available for all Cell Press Journals; Some Articles Available at No Charge]

The Libraries are participating in a beta test of the Access World News: Research Collection through the end of Spring Semester.  This is a total news product including news from over 5,000 sources in all media types, including  116 sources from Ohio.

Access World News: Research Collection: Research current and archived news content for information on topics, events, issues, people, businesses, and more. Easy online access to local, in-state, national and international news sources, including newspapers, broadcast transcripts, newswires, news blogs, web-only and video content.

For comparison, we currently have access to a limited number of newspapers from the same NewBank company that is developing this database.  You may also want to compare this product with EBSCOhost’s Newspaper Source or LexisNexis Academic.

Mulford is pleased to host an exhibit of artwork by HSC students, staff and faculty until Feb. 24.

A reception celebrating the artists will be held this Friday, 1/29 at Mulford from 4pm-6pm.  The event is open to all, and light refreshments will be served.

For more information, contact Jodi Jameson at 419-383-5152 or jodi.jameson@utoledo.edu.

The database is hosted by the European Molecular Biology Laboratory’s European Bioinformatics Institute (EMBL-EBI). It was transferred from biotech firm Galapagos NV in July 2008 through a £4.7 million Strategic Award from the Wellcome Trust.

ChEMBLdb is a unique resource because of its focus on drug discovery and its size: information on an additional 100,000 compounds has been added to the database for its launch, taking the number of small molecules to over 520,000, and it contains over 2.4 million records of their effects on biological systems. The data include information about how small molecules bind to their targets, how these compounds affect cells and whole organisms, and information on the molecules’ absorption, distribution, metabolism, excretion and toxicity.
