#medlibs or #meded if you have Clinical Key - have you noticed a drop in usage in past 2-3 years?

@openevidence.bsky.social do you have a way for libraries to integrate a link to their full text?

Just curious does your library have any control of your website? #medlibs

Exciting news - I have actually updated the Library Conferences on BlueSky page, and it now has current and previous 2026 sections! Lots to do to add in events I have noted in screenshots and saved emails, but good progress.

Umm, I know cases for learning can be fictional, but published case reports in a society medical journal, for the last 25 years 😧?? #medlibs retractionwatch.com/2026/03/03/c...

7/ In reality, my colleagues still inside NIH tell me that their assessments are largely ignored. Once a grant or application is picked up by the tool, they are almost never able to move the grant forward as is - regardless of the scientific justification.

🔥 Hot tip! Before starting a systematic review, make sure an information scientist/research librarian is part of the review team. They have specialised skills to develop & implement a comprehensive search strategy 🔎 Learn more: bit.ly/4spgp1z #JBIMethodology #medlibs

So, the HR Manager at #SLV used to work for TAB, a large Australian gambling company (responsible for destroying many lives). The #SLV is being dismantled before our very eyes. #medlibs #ALIA

@openevidence.bsky.social are you now requiring NPI? I work with PhDs and medical students who would like access to this resource.

"misuse of children’s data has validated longstanding concerns that hundreds of thousands of Americans’ genetic information held by the NIH. could fall into the wrong hands" Of course if it were open data, that would be a given from the outset... www.nytimes.com/2026/01/24/u...

Hey #medlibs & library folks - check your catalog for the Journal of the Academy of Public Health. You may want to reconsider that & refine teaching language for clarity about evidence-based health information this year. eagledawg.blogspot.com/2026/01/publ...

#medlibs Suggestions for grey literature resources on contaminates in water and how they affect pregnancy. I looked at EPA but other suggestions?

Not surprising, but disappointing and frustrating nonetheless. #medlibs

Are there any #toxicology #librarians out there I can be friends with? #toxlibs #medlibs

It's very concerning that the Literature Selection Technical Review Committee was terminated and there's little awareness of it. This has me concerned that more predatory/crap science will become part of PubMed. #medlibs

Systematic reviews on the same topic are common but often fail to meet key methodological standards: a research-on-research study - Journal of Clinical Epidemiology www.jclinepi.com/article/S089.... #medlibs

CDC Library staff and the larger Office of Science Quality and Library Services have yet to be re-hired at the CDC!!! Please contact your elected reps to advocate for the reinstatement of the CDC Library. Every little bit helps! #medlibs #firedbutfighting #publichealthsaveslives #CDC

Does anyone have a recommended estimate or range for writing APCs into NIH grants? How’d you determine that? Of course if/when APC caps happen, there’s your answer. #medlibs #scholcomm

So is PubMed/MEDLINE is still getting updated. Based on yesterday's update files things are still happening... ftp.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/updat... Not really sure what long-term implications are (if the shutdown continues). Any ideas #medlibs?

Question specifically for #medlibs: does your medical education program(s) expect you to provide access to course texts? And by expect, I mean really come down hard and firm about it?

To celebrate October's National Medical Librarians Month, we will be sharing some of our favorite #MLAUXCaucus Database Tips blog posts every day this month! Tip #1: Bulk export from Google Scholar #medlibs #ExpertSearching #SystematicReviews uxcaucustips.blogspot.com/2022/01/tip-...

Please remember that many databases and resources get their data or information from PubMed “Because of a lapse in government funding, the information on this website may not be up to date…”

The government shutdown is going to affect the MEDLINE component of all the platforms that hold MEDLINE, right? #medlibs

"I'm not on that committee" is a longstanding #medlibs joke but preferable than termination & 2 consultants when it comes to advisory feedback about MEDLINE. More about that & a Sept 25th update about a European alternative PubMed project. eagledawg.blogspot.com/2025/09/medl...
