- Export search results to EndNote Web (see below). (Use the MEDLINE display format.)
- Many ways to limit searches (age group, gender, language, type of study), but there is no structure, patent, or CAS number searching.
- Related documents are determined by number of repetitions of search words.
- Offers some free content, but does NOT work with the Drew article linker. To find out if Drew has access to a journal, enter the PMID in the appropriate box on the Electronic Journals page.
- Search help: (these are meant to be two sided trifolds, so you will have to figure out how to read the information in the correct order.)
