|
|
|
he 2003 calendar year will ring in a reorganization of the National Library of Medicine (NLM) Online Training Program classes. In order to cover the varied features
|
|
and nuances for each database/system adequately and at a comfortable pace, we are adjusting our class offerings.
|
|
</p>
|
|
|
|
<p>
|
|
For 2003, we will offer a one-day class devoted entirely to PubMed<sup><font size="-2">®</font></sup> as well as
|
|
a new half-day class concentrating on the NLM Gateway and <em>ClinicalTrials.gov</em>; TOXNET<sup><font size="-2">®</font></sup> is still offered as
|
|
a one-day class. See the class descriptions below for details. Previously, discussion of the
|
|
NLM Gateway and <em>ClinicalTrials.gov</em> was somewhat limited, occurring at the end of an already full instruction period.
|
|
We also found that it was increasingly difficult to cover PubMed features and enhancements when all three systems
|
|
were included in a single class offering. This reorganization will provide classes that are more focused and efficient.
|
|
</p>
|
|
|
|
<p>
|
|
<strong>Classes Offered</strong><br />
|
|
</p>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li><strong>NLM Training: PubMed</strong><br />
|
|
This full-day class is designed to teach students how to use <a href="http://pubmed.gov">PubMed</a>.
|
|
It also includes an overview of the Medical Subject Headings (MeSH<sup><font size="-2">®</font></sup>)
|
|
and its importance as a tool to both searchers and indexers. PubMed provides access to over 12 million
|
|
MEDLINE<sup><font size="-2">®</font></sup> citations back to the mid-1960's.
|
|
Attendees of this free class earn Medical Library Association (MLA) continuing education credits
|
|
(number of credits yet to be determined).<br /><br /></li>
|
|
|
|
<li><strong>NLM Training: NLM Gateway & ClinicalTrials.gov</strong><br />
|
|
This half-day class is designed to teach students how to use the <a href="http://gateway.nlm.nih.gov/gw/Cmd">NLM Gateway</a>.
|
|
The NLM Gateway is a Web-based system that allows users to search simultaneously in multiple NLM retrieval systems.
|
|
This class also includes a discussion and demonstration of <a href="http://clinicaltrials.gov/"> <em>ClinicalTrials.gov</em></a>.
|
|
Attendees of this free class earn MLA continuing education credits
|
|
(number of credits yet to be determined).<br /><br />
|
|
</li>
|
|
<li><strong>NLM Training: TOXNET</strong><br />
|
|
This full-day class is designed to convey the basics of searching the NLM's <a href="http://toxnet.nlm.nih.gov/">TOXNET</a>, a web-based system of
|
|
databases in the areas of toxicology, environmental health, and related subjects. Students learn the content and structure of files covering toxicology
|
|
data, toxicology literature, toxic releases, and chemical searching and nomenclature. Among the databases highlighted are TOXLINE<sup><font size="-2">®</font></sup>, the Hazardous
|
|
Substances Data Bank, the Integrated Risk Information System, the Toxic Release Inventory, and ChemIDplus. Attendees of this
|
|
free class earn 7 MLA continuing education credits.
|
|
</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
|
|
<p>
|
|
NLM Staff will also be teaching classes in Bethesda, MD on the Unified Medical
|
|
Language System (UMLS<sup><font size="-2">®</font></sup>)
|
|
and the National Center for Biotechnology Information (NCBI) Molecular Biology
|
|
Information Resources. Please watch the <em>NLM Technical Bulletin</em> for announcements of
|
|
2003 class offerings.
|
|
</p>

|
|
<strong>How to Apply</strong><br />
|
|
You may view the training class schedule and register online for classes at the National Training Center & Clearinghouse (NTCC) Web
|
|
site at <a href="http://nnlm.gov/ntcc/">http://nnlm.gov/ntcc/</a>. Not all the 2003 classes have been scheduled yet so
|
|
please check the NTCC Web site periodically for announcements of additional 2003 classes.
|
|
</p>
|
|
|
|
<p>
|
|
Every attempt will be made to place training applicants in the class requested. If a class is filled, applicants will be registered for their
|
|
second choice, and also automatically placed on the waiting list for their first choice. Please note that all classes are considered "tentative" pending the
|
|
required minimum enrollment being met one month before the class.
|
|
</p>
|
|
|
|
<p>
|
|
Approximately one month prior to the class, registrants will receive a packet with information on hotels, local site arrangements and the class agenda. Information on location of training sites and
|
|
links to many of the sites' Web pages are available from the NTCC Web site.
|
|
</p>
|
|
|
|
<p>
|
|
<strong>Each Person Makes a Difference</strong><br />
|
|
Our classes are in demand and usually fill rapidly, often creating a waiting list. In order to help us provide training opportunities to as
|
|
many people as possible, please notify the NTCC office if you have registered for a class and your plans change. The more advance notice
|
|
you give us, the more likely it is that someone else can take the available space. It is very disappointing to begin a class with empty chairs
|
|
that could have been occupied. We are asking for your cooperation to help allow as many people as possible to benefit from this free
|
|
training program.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
<strong>Distance Education via the Web</strong><br />
|
|
A Web-based, PubMed tutorial is also available. Just click on <a href="http://www.nlm.nih.gov/bsd/pubmed_tutorial/m1001.html">Tutorial</a>
|
|
on the PubMed sidebar. The self-paced, interactive tutorial is useful to the casual, first-time, PubMed searcher as well as to the more
|
|
experienced PubMed searcher.
