Since then, our NLM colleagues have added 22,000+ more articles in PMC, encompassing more than a dozen journal titles spanning the 19th and 20th centuries and falling under the <a href=\"https:\/\/creativecommons.org\/publicdomain\/mark\/1.0\/\">Creative Commons Public Domain Mark<\/a>. As with previously-released titles, PMC makes available for this additional corpus machine-readable full-text and metadata, including titles, authors, and any affiliations, as well as volume, issue, publication date, pagination, and license information. Such article-level digitization also enables us to link data\u2014that is, to connect individual and associated articles with corresponding catalog records and sometimes even with <a

No one has ever questioned its right, even its duty, to care for the wounded soldier, or the sick soldier, or the one permanently disabled. The present commissioners of the Red Cross in France are prepared to go farther, for they believe that it is their duty to endeavor to assist, where their help is desired, in the scientific research of the medical men caring for the American troops, that by such aid in scientific work the troops may receive more quickly the benefit of increased medical and surgical knowledge, both in the prevention of disease and in its treatment.”<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>In addition to establishing a network of laboratories to support such research, Lambert explained further to readers that the Red Cross proposed to \u201cdisseminate the knowledge thus obtained more effectively\u201d through periodic meetings of researchers, publishing their reports on the latest methods of treatment for war injuries and diseases, and establishing a library to collect and help preserve these reports.<\/p>\n<p>Over the next two years, as hostilities of the Great War ceased, demobilization from Europe proceeded, and nations continued to come to grips with the human toll of the conflict, the <em>Medical Bulletin<\/em> and its successor titles delivered on Lambert\u2019s original proposal.
