Greetings,
Another thing the NTCC trainers talked about in the PubMed Class on Tuesday were the big changes coming any moment now to MyNCBI. At some point this week, MyNCBI will be taken down for a few hours (see http://www.nlm.nih.gov/pubs/techbull/so08/so08_myncbi_unavailable.html).
For a sneak peak at the changes to MyNCBI, please see: http://www.nlm.nih.gov/pubs/techbull/so08/so08_myncbi_redesign.html. There will be significant changes to navigation, managing collections and saved searches plus a new bibliography feature. Also, according to the NTCC trainers, one will now be able to save an unlimited number of searches within a single MyNCBI account.
If you are not yet subscribed to the NLM Technical Bulletin, I strongly encourage you to do so. It really is an essential resource for keeping up with news from NLM, especially changes to PubMed and thus avoid at least some of those awkward moments of logging into PubMed and being totally surprised by new features or functionality.
