As first announced in the July-August 1998 <em>NLM Technical Bulletin</em> article, <a href="http://www.nlm.nih.gov/pubs/techbull/ja98/ja98_cancer.html">CANCERLIT® and PDQ® To Be Removed from the NLM Databases -
|
|
|
|
Available from NCI's Web Site</a>, effective December 14, 1998 direct MEDLARS access to CANCERLIT and PDQ will no longer be available.
|
|
|
|
</p>
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
<p>
|
|
|
|
PDQ information and the CANCERLIT database are available on the NCI's CancerNet (TM) Web
|
|
|
|
site <a href="http://www.cancer.gov/">http://www.cancer.gov/</a>.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Closed clinical trials are not available on the Web version of PDQ. Users who have an infrequent need for the closed trials data have two options. Health professionals may call the PDQ/CANCERLIT Service Center (800-345-3300) to have a search run in the Closed Trials file. Patients may call the Cancer Information Service (800-4-CANCER) to have a search run in the Closed Trials file. If you have an ongoing need for access to this data, it is available through the <a href="http://www.cancer.gov/">NCI Information Associates Program </a> (http://cancernet.nci.nih.gov/jnci/iapinfo.html) and the Office of Cancer Information, Communication and Education (OCICE) <a href="http://www.cancer.gov/">licensing partners</a> (http://cancernet.nci.nih.gov/index.html).

Searchers do not need to wait until December to acquaint
|

themselves with the search features that CancerNet offers for these databases or to find alternative access methods. You can visit the CancerNet Web site now. For more information on how to search PDQ or CANCERLIT, call the NCI's PDQ/CANCERLIT

On November 14, 1998 OLDMEDLINE went from a two-year file to a six-year file. Prior to this change, OLDMEDLINE covered citations from the 1964 and 1965 <em>Cumulated Index Medicus (CIM)</em>. With this expansion, the file contains 771,287 citations indexed for <em>CIM</em> between 1960 and 1965. OLDMEDLINE is currently Web-accessible through Internet Grateful Med (http://igm.nlm.nih.gov) and it is also available as an ELHILL file. A detailed article will appear in the November-December 1998 <em>NLM Technical Bulletin</em>.
