The National Library of Medicine Technical Bulletin is a public domain information newsletter of the Office of Engagement and Training, United States National Library of Medicine (NLM).[1][2] The newsletter contains current news and information for NLM products and services, listings for NLM events,[3] and update notes for NLM offerings,[4] including PubMed,[5] MEDLINE,[6] and MeSH.[7]
Format
[edit]The bulletin is not peer reviewed.
It was published on a monthly schedule until 1990, after which point it was switched to bimonthly.[8] It was a paper periodical until the January–February 1998 issue, which was published online, along with all further issues.[8]
History
[edit]The newsletter's first issue appeared in 1969 as the MEDLARS/Network Technical Bulletin; it was changed after six issues to Library Network/MEDLARS Technical Bulletin.[9] In 1977, the current NLM Technical Bulletin was formed from the merger of the Library Network/MEDLARS Technical Bulletin and the TOXLINE Technical Bulletin; and the new bulletin continued with the issue numbers of the Library Network/MEDLARS Technical Bulletin.
Website
[edit]After the 1998 transition to an online-only publication, printable versions of each issue were offered on the website. Since 2018, a printable version has not been offered for new issues.[10]
