indexed citations).
 46,918 gene indexing links created (4% increase
from last year).
► FY2007

 175,177 citations indexed in during the 2nd quarter,
at a rate of over 700,000 articles per year.
 More than 85% of MEDLINE citations now supplied

Journal Indexing

 120 online-only journals indexed for
MEDLINE, an increase from 107 a year ago.
 276 additional journals - the online version is
indexed instead of the print version.

Bioethics Information Resources
► Web

resource developed to provide
additional support to the subject of
bioethics.
► www.nlm.nih.gov/bsd/bioethics.html
► Main links on:
 PubMed Special Queries page.
 List of NLM Databases and Resources on the
NLM Home page.

OLDMEDLINE
► Mapping

OLDMEDLINE Keywords to
current MeSH:
 76% of citations mapped completely (over
1.34 million citations).
 These completed records are now converted
to the status [PubMed – Indexed for
MEDLINE].
 Work continues on mapping the additional
keywords.

► Conversion

of the citations from the 1949

Current List of Medical Literature (CLML)
has begun.

PubMed
► PubMed

– surpassed 17 million records
► MEDLINE – over 15.8 million (93%)
► In Process records – over 252,000 (1.5%)
► OLDMEDLINE – over 420,000 (2.5%)
► PubMed-only records – over 524,000 (3%)

PubMed Enhancements
► New

version of the Entrez system being
developed.
► Beta version made available for review this
spring.
► New system to be coming online soon.
► Foundation for the next generation of
features and capabilities on Entrez
databases, including PubMed.

PubMed Enhancements
► AbstractPlus

view

 New default view
 Single citation display – customizable selection using
My NCBI
 Library icons
►New system version displays a single library icon in
upper right hand corner – different size (100 pixels
x 25 pixels)
►If users activate more than one icon, the icon
displayed at the top will be selected according to
the following priority:
 Library LinkOut full text icon
 Library LinkOut print icon
 Outside Tool icon

AbstractPlus

PMC Scanning Project
► Journal

Back Issues loaded to PubMed.

 39 Completed Journals and growing.
 70,231 total citations added.
 From journals such as PNAS, Plant Physiology,
Journal of Physiology, Journal of Clinical
Pathology, and Journal of Anatomy
► Next

step, adding abstracts found in PMC
citations not found in PubMed Citations.

PMC Scanning Project
► From

the 38 completed PMC back issue
scanned titles:
 40,640 new abstracts added from 23 titles.
 15 titles did not have new abstracts to add.

► Process

now part of standard workflow for
PMC scanned citations to be included in
MEDLINE/PubMed.

Party Back Issue Citations

► Publisher

data.
► Goal:

requests to include their retrospective

 Load citations for journal issues not previously
included in MEDLINE/PubMed.
 New citations published from 1966 and up will be put
into MEDLINE format.
 These citations will not be indexed with MeSH.
 Also, add abstracts from Publisher citations that are
not found in MEDLINE citations.
► Slow

process, dependent upon QA testing and
review.

Back Issues loaded to PubMed.

 39 Completed Journals and growing.
 70,231 total citations added.
 From journals such as PNAS, Plant Physiology,
Journal of Physiology, Journal of Clinical
Pathology, and Journal of Anatomy
► Next

step, adding abstracts found in PMC
citations not found in PubMed Citations.

PMC Scanning Project
► From

the 38 completed PMC back issue
scanned titles:
 40,640 new abstracts added from 23 titles.
 15 titles did not have new abstracts to add.

► Process

now part of standard workflow for

 Load citations for journal issues not previously
included in MEDLINE/PubMed.
 New citations published from 1966 and up will be put
into MEDLINE format.
 These citations will not be indexed with MeSH.
 Also, add abstracts from Publisher citations that are
not found in MEDLINE citations.
► Slow

process, dependent upon QA testing and
review.

PMC Scanning Project
► From

the 38 completed PMC back issue
scanned titles:
 40,640 new abstracts added from 23 titles.
 15 titles did not have new abstracts to add.

PubMed / Medline Indexing
► FY2006

 629,000 indexed citations added to MEDLINE.
 Highest ever indexing rate (last year was 606,596
indexed citations).
 46,918 gene indexing links created (4% increase
from last year).
► FY2007

 175,177 citations indexed in during the 2nd quarter,
at a rate of over 700,000 articles per year.
 More than 85% of MEDLINE citations now supplied
electronically by publishers.

Indexing
► Electronic

Journal Indexing

 120 online-only journals indexed for
MEDLINE, an increase from 107 a year ago.
 276 additional journals - the online version is
indexed instead of the print version.

Bioethics Information Resources
► Web

resource developed to provide
additional support to the subject of
bioethics.
► www.nlm.nih.gov/bsd/bioethics.html
► Main links on:
 PubMed Special Queries page.
 List of NLM Databases and Resources on the
NLM Home page.

OLDMEDLINE
► Mapping

OLDMEDLINE Keywords to
current MeSH:
 76% of citations mapped completely (over
1.34 million citations).
 These completed records are now converted
to the status [PubMed – Indexed for
MEDLINE].
 Work continues on mapping the additional
keywords.

► Conversion

of the citations from the 1949

Current List of Medical Literature (CLML)
has begun.

PubMed
► PubMed

– surpassed 17 million records
► MEDLINE – over 15.8 million (93%)
► In Process records – over 252,000 (1.5%)
► OLDMEDLINE – over 420,000 (2.5%)
► PubMed-only records – over 524,000 (3%)

PubMed Enhancements
► New

version of the Entrez system being
developed.
► Beta version made available for review this
spring.
► New system to be coming online soon.
► Foundation for the next generation of
features and capabilities on Entrez
databases, including PubMed.

PubMed Enhancements
► AbstractPlus

 New default view
 Single citation display – customizable selection using
My NCBI
 Library icons
►New system version displays a single library icon in
upper right hand corner – different size (100 pixels

PMC Scanning Project
► Journal

Back Issues loaded to PubMed.

 39 Completed Journals and growing.
 70,231 total citations added.
 From journals such as PNAS, Plant Physiology,
Journal of Physiology, Journal of Clinical
Pathology, and Journal of Anatomy
► Next

step, adding abstracts found in PMC
citations not found in PubMed Citations.

PMC Scanning Project
► From

the 38 completed PMC back issue
scanned titles:
 40,640 new abstracts added from 23 titles.
 15 titles did not have new abstracts to add.

► Process

now part of standard workflow for
PMC scanned citations to be included in
MEDLINE/PubMed.

Party Back Issue Citations

► Publisher

data.
► Goal:

requests to include their retrospective

 Load citations for journal issues not previously
included in MEDLINE/PubMed.
 New citations published from 1966 and up will be put
into MEDLINE format.
 These citations will not be indexed with MeSH.
 Also, add abstracts from Publisher citations that are
not found in MEDLINE citations.
► Slow

process, dependent upon QA testing and
review.
