New England Journal of Medicine and Nature iPad Applications

Want to use your iPad to access e-journals?

New England Journal of Medicine and Nature now offer an application that allows users to browse journal abstracts via their iPad.

Please note that although the app download is free, access to full text on your mobile device is not. Access to full text on your mobile device requires a payment of a monthly fee to the publisher.

Note: Even though the Texas Medical Center Library has a subscription to these journals, access to full text content with an iPad is not available with your TMC login. Currently, the publishers of these journals do not allow The TMC Library to provide full text access as part of our subscription fees.

Free Access to PowerPoint Slides From Articles in New England Journal of Medicine

The New England Journal of Medicine is currently offering a free six-months trial to individual users wanting to access PowerPoint slides that accompany an article. 

NEJM does not currently offer this PowerPoint download feature as part of a library’s institutional subscription, so you may wish to take advantage of this free trial.  

Questions concerning NEJM access? please contact Joanne Romano, Licensing and Serials Librarian, at joanne.romano@exch.library.tmc.edu

New England Journal of Medicine Archive 1812-1989

The TMC Library now offers online access to the New England Journal of Medicine (NEJM) Archives from 1812 to 1989.  “With over 150,000 articles, 8,657 issues, 478,000 pages, 85,316 images, and 610,000 references, the NEJM Archive is certain to include the information you need.

All articles have been scanned at high resolution; the earliest NEJM articles, published between 1812 and 1944, are presented as searchable PDFs. Articles published between 1945 and 1989 are presented just like current content, accompanied by the PDFs. Articles are fully searchable, tabbed for easy access, and available as PDFs or full-text HTML with downloadable graphics.  Where possible, NEJM has also added full issues and cover and advertising sections in order to showcase the print advertisements that were published in the original issue.”

Access to the Archives is available on the NEJM website, along with current subscription content from 1990 to the present.
