Bioethics in Databases at the National Library of Medicine

From 1973 to January 2007 the library and information services staff worked with NLM to bring bioethics information to NLM’s wide audience of researchers and clinicians, and the general public by developing terminology and assigning Medical Subject Headings (MeSH) terms to a selected subset of the documents in the library. This bioethics subset can be used to retrieve more focused citations from the PubMed database.


PubMed

Journal articles, court decisions, bills, laws, and news articles. (Limit to the bioethics subset.)
