The National Library of Medicine has recently published Citing Medicine: the NLM Style Guide for Authors, Editors, and Publishers. According to NLM, "This publication updates and supersedes two existing publications: National Library of Medicine Recommended Formats for Bibliographic Citation (1991) and National Library of Medicine Recommended Formats for Bibliographic Citation.Internet Supplement (2001)." I have therefore removed these two earlier volumes from the Reference section and sent them to general stacks.
Please note that Citing Medicine is ONLY published as an ebook; there is no print equivalent. It is available free of cost to the general public at: http://www.nlm.nih.gov/citingmedicine. Nicole has also catalogued it, so it is available via MNCAT. She also added it to the Bio-Med ebooks page under the Research and Writing section.
