PubMed Search Clinic

Did you connect to the PubMed Search Clinic this afternoon? I didn't even need to use my phone this time around. The VoIP worked nicely. It was definitely worth the time! It saved me all that time that it would have taken me to "experiment" and figure out how things worked. Somehow I haven't had the time to try out that beta Advanced Search. So, thank you NLM for the update!

And seriously, just a few minutes before the session, I tried to show one of our residents how to use the Single Citation Matcher with our PubMed LinkOut to locate citations to see if they are available in our collection or to link through to fulltext. And his eyes just glazed over. I think that citation sensor would have been much simpler for him.
