Improvements to PubMed - Adding Favorite Citations to MyNCBI Collections



Have you searched PubMed lately? Have you noticed that PubMed added some enhancements to the database?

The PubMed Abstracts now includes a "Save Items" portlet that provides users with an easy way to add items to MyNCBI Collections when you click on the "Favorite" button.  The "Save Items" portlet also includes a drop-down menu that allows you to display a list of all collections in your account when you are signed into MyNCBI. You can add "Favorite" citations to an existing collection or create a new one; if you don't choose a particular collection a Favorites collection will be created by the system.

For detailed instructions on using and creating Collections with the "Favorite" button, check the NLM Technical Bulletin at: http://www.nlm.nih.gov/pubs/techbull/ma12/ma12_pm_favorites.html#fig1
