June 26, 1997: The first search of PubMed by Vice President Al Gore at the US Capitol.[1]
MEDLINE® (Medical Literature Analysis and Retrieval System Online) is a database of predominantly biomedical bibliographic citations maintained by the U.S. National Library of Medicine (NLM).[2] Each citation includes bibliographic data, abstract if available, links to full text of the article and keywords. The keywords are indexed with the NLM's Medical Subject Headings (MeSH®).[3]
There are many third party interfaces to search MEDLINE such as OVID[4]. The National Library of Medicine's own search interface is PubMed (http://pubmed.gov).
PubMed
PubMed (http://pubmed.gov) has been freely available since its first search was performed by Vice President Al Gore from a press conference at the US Capitol on June 26, 1997.[1]
PubMed is hosted by the Entrez Search and Retrieval System of the National Center for Biotechnology Information[5] (NCBI) branch of the NLM[6] The hardware hosting Entrez has been described.[7]
