Search Pubmed, see what's available at Swilley Library

Now you can search Pubmed and easily display records for items available through the Swilley Library. Just use our customized Pubmed link, now displayed on the library's list of databases. When looking at the list of results, just click on the "mercerlib" tab to see records for articles that should be available through the library. Each record in the mercerlib results list should display either a "Swilley e-journal" or "Check @ Swilley Library" link so you can link to the electronic fulltext or check to see if we have the article in print.

Note: If you use My NCBI, then use these instructionsons how to create a tab of Swilley Library results when you are logged into your own My NCBI account.

Check out our collection of tools for spectral analysis and finding information on biomolecular structures. I welcome suggestions for other web sites to add to this collection.

New tool for citing references

Now you can store your references in your RefWorks account and have RefWorks generate a bilbliography using AMA style or a style from a specific journal. Download references from Pubmed or other article index databases. RefWorks is an online research management tool designed to help you easily gather, manage, store and share all types of information, as well as generate citations and bibliographies.

Check out and create your own account at Refworks. First, you'll need to log in to the Swilley page for Library Passwords for Databases. Use the Galileo password to log in. Then, you'll see the link and the initial password for accessing Refworks.

For questions or if you would like to know more about downloading references from Pubmed and other databases, call Amy at x6272.
