Join the DCL Learning Series: PubMed, PubMed Central – Ask the Experts

PubMed and PubMed Central are both free resources for accessing biomedical and life sciences literature at the U.S. National Institutes of Health’s National Library of Medicine (NIH/NLM). The NLM collaborates with publishers, scholarly societies, research funders, other content providers, and international organizations to preserve journal articles, research material, and other historical literature.

Content must be submitted in the proper XML format for frictionless deposits into the system. PubMed and PubMed Central both require XML but the requirements differ and are often confusing.
