  PubMed is the National Library of Medicine's (NLM) premier database of scholarly citations covering nearly 4,500 journals published in the U.S. and more than 70 other countries. New citations are added weekly. PubMed is more current than MEDLINE via EBSCO and in addition to providing access to MEDLINE, PubMed provides access to:

  • The out-of-scope citations (e.g., articles on plate tectonics or astrophysics) from certain MEDLINE journals, primarily general science and chemistry journals, for which the life sciences articles are indexed for MEDLINE
  • Citations that precede the date that a journal was selected for MEDLINE indexing
  • Some additional life science journals that submit full text to PubMedCentral(c) and receive a qualitative review by NLM.
• SPORTDiscus

  Because UConn holds a license to Beilstein CrossFire, users can see summaries of compounds and reaction information in Scopus for any article that is also indexed in Beilstein Crossfire.

  Using the Papers application from Mekentosj to search Scopus? Papers should prompt you for the Scopus ID (36298) when you do a Scopus search. If it doesn't, or if you need to change it, it go to Preferences, Plugins, Search Engines. Also, Papers can also be configured to use our off campus authentication system (EZproxy), so you might want to add http://ezproxy.lib.uconn.edu/login?url=%@ in the "library proxy" box under "Preferences, Sources".
