Announcements & News

It is my pleasure to share updates from the NIH Library with you. These are only a few of the many projects and initiatives we are working on.

With the holiday season upon us, it is a great time to reflect on the past year, celebrate our many successes, and plan for the future. In my previous messages, I’ve highlighted some of the NIH Library’s achievements over 2017.

Although the summer months may traditionally be a time to slow down, the NIH Library is making exciting progress on several initiatives.

It’s my pleasure to welcome you to the NIH Library and share a few exciting developments.

Have you ever wondered how to extract the bibliographic data contained within key resources (PubMed, Web of Knowledge, Scopus) for internal projects? Scholarly publishers and databases offer APIs (application programming interfaces) to allow users the ability to systematically access data to serve a variety of research purposes.

The NIH Library is pleased to announce the availability of several software packages for analysis, processing, and visualization of both quantitative and qualitative data.

In conjunction with the NIH Research Festival​, the Library’s open house will showcase why we truly are “Your Partner in Research.” New this year will be a demonstration of the data visualization touch screen provided by the NIH Office of the Associate Director for Data Science.

NIH staff are invited to attend “Web of Science: Preclinical to Patent Searching” on May 21st organized by the NIH Library. This free training event will be held in the NIH Library Training Room, Building 10, from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m. Both in-person and remote attendance options are available. Registration is required.
