<h1>NLM Databases, Resources & APIs</h1>

<p>
|

The NLM<span class="registered">®</span> released the <a href="//wwwcf2.nlm.nih.gov/nlm_eresources/eresources/search_database.cfm">Databases, Resources & APIs</a> page (formerly the NLM Databases & Electronic Resources page) with a new look. The page can be accessed from the "All NLM Databases & APIs" links on the NLM homepage (see <a href="#fig1">Figure 1</a>).

</p>

<div class="figure" style="width: 624px;"> <img src="graphics/databases_figa1.png" alt="Screen capture of NLM Databases, Resources & APIs Web page." title="Screen capture of NLM Databases, Resources & APIs Web page" width="622" height="465" /><br /> <strong>Figure 1: Access from the "All NLM Databases & APIs" link on the NLM homepage.</strong> </div>
|
|
|
|
<p>
|
|
The "Databases, Resources & APIs" page provides one place to find all NLM electronic resources including datasets, biomedical databases, application programming interfaces (APIs), Web-based and mobile applications, and hyperlinks to informational tools (see <a href="#fig2">Figure 2</a>).

<p>
|
|
Enter terms or key concepts in the search box. To filter your search by subcategory select one of the checkboxes (see <a href="#fig3">Figure 3</a>) or search by filters alone (see <a href="#fig4">Figure 4</a>).

|
|
|
|
|
|
<!--<p>
|
|
Search for resources by keyword or broad <a href="//www.nlm.nih.gov/mesh/MBrowser.html">Medical Subject Heading</a> (MeSH) term. To filter your search by subcategory select one of the checkboxes (see <a href="#fig2">Figure 2</a>) or search by filters alone (see <a href="#fig3">Figure 3</a>).
