The National Library of Medicine is pleased to announce a redesign of the PubMed interface. While retaining the robust functionality, the interface was simplified to make it easier to use. The changes are outlined in the September/October 2009 NLM Technical Bulletin. Please note that PubMed’s search processing has not changed. The preview version will enable users to try out the new interface and is expected to run for at least two weeks after which PubMed will exist in the redesigned version only.

Current UCLA students, faculty, and staff can meet with biomedical librarians for consultations on using PubMed and MeSH (MEdical Subject Headings). Consultations with librarians can be requested online or by filling out a consultation request form at the Public Service Desk. The National Library of Medicine also makes several online tutorials available.
