Almost two years ago, we launched PubMed Journals, an NCBI Labs project. PubMed Journals helped people follow the latest biomedical literature by making it easier to find and follow journals, browse new articles, and included a Journal News Feed to track new arrivals news links, trending articles and important article updates.
PubMed Journals was a successful experiment. Since September 2016, nearly 20,000 people followed 10,453 distinct journals. Each customer followed 3 journals on average.
Though PubMed Journals will no longer exist as a separate entity, we hope to add its features into future NCBI products. We appreciate your feedback over the years that made PubMed Journals a productive test of new ideas.
NCBI Labs is NCBI’s product incubator for delivering new features and capabilities to NCBI end users.
This post is not very useful as it does not provide suggestions for alternatives !!
What does this mean? I followed a link to an article and I get this page? How am I supposed to see the article?!
I am in the same situation, what a ……. is that, are you kidding us?
I guess so
The PubMed Journals site now redirects here, as that experiment is now over. You should be able to search and find articles on PubMed, as usual. Please email us at info@ncbi.nlm.nih.gov if you’re having trouble.
Same lol I am supposed to research something but I guess I am kind of screwed now
Does this mean that PubMed will no longer be publicly accessible? Surely not? What DOES it mean? Where is the headlined article? Will someone reply to this? I see similar questions, but no replies.
This means that the PubMed Journals experimental site is no longer available. You can read this blog post if you’d like to know what features PubMed Journals had.
PubMed, however, is still publicly accessible.
Terrible news. I have referred so many of my students to this to help them as teachers. I guess another budget cut in the wrong place.
Yes terribly unfair and in-adapted to the actual situation, it should have been more opened instead, incredible and so disappointed !
OMG! WhAT!??? NOOOooo!! This is HORRIBLE NEWS! I feel like a part of me has been robbed, lost and taken from me with no regard! Say this isnt so!! WHY!?!?!
NOO pleas, still PubMed publications are more reliable
PubMed offered the ability to maximize easy access to current research from the laboratories around the world from your home computer!! in any article, citations of information could be checked for interpretation versus accuracy. Any new ideas could be explored for possibility of validity. The site leveled the playing field for a scientist in city college without a lab versus labs in Harvard or Yale. Innovation without funding versus current accepted funded theories have research results at their finger tips, free of pre-conceived prejudice. The site provides the most fertile basis and potential for new discoveries without bias. Your PubMed is a HUGE success! Continue to provide a portal for unbiased access to immediate unfolding research to foster science based creativity.
Is this because of the current Trump administration ?
At NCBI, we’re constantly working to improve our resources and serve you as best as we can. Sometimes that requires retiring tools or other resources. PubMed Journals was an NCBI Labs experiment, which means that it was always subject to changes or retirement. We hope to include features from PubMed Journals into future NCBI products.
Thanks for sharing this valuable and authentic information with us. Please share something more knowledgeable like that.
If it was so successful why is it being discontinued?
If the “experiment” was a success, why shut it down? If you are working to “improve resources”, why are you shutting down such a valuable resource to millions of scientists and researchers? Online access to important journal articles is a backbone to science and progress. Instead of shutting down this important resource, fire the team who suggested such a rotten idea.
Please dont shut down the service. Thanks
Please dont shut down the service. Thanks
Aughhh I am so Sorry to see you guys go!!! You have been such a Wonderful Site for Information when you need it in a hurry. It has been such a pleasure to have found you and I wish you all the Very Best of Luck in the Future!
Please don’t shut down the service. Thanks
Should this resource become a publicly supported project akin to Wikipedia? Supported by a community?
Pub-med journals has been my main source of listed medical journals .What exactly is the alternative if any.Please respond as clearly as you can.
This is sad for me, I always rely on PubMed for access of a whole lot of information.
PubMed is still here. PubMed *Journals*, an experimental project, has been shut down.
NCBI Staff. Can you provide a link to the article we’re all looking for please?
Hi Brendan,
If you need help searching for articles on PubMed, please write us at info@ncbi.nlm.nih.gov.
NCBI‘S PubMed Journals was a superb & valued source of research literature. I am very sorry to see it go but will be looking forward to finding old and new features from PubMed in your future NCBI products.
Thank you for running this experiment and for all of your help.
Bruce.
I love your publication.
Rather excellent idea
Disappointed to see this project is gone. Was hoping to find credible information on scientific journals here that would have been really helpful to me, and it is frustrating that no alternative source for the same information is listed.
I’m looking for Medical Times 93,6 (June 1965), pages 588-593
Andrew, please write to us at info@ncbi.nlm.nih.gov.
Please don’t shut down the service. Rather excellent idea.
Thanks for sharing this valuable and authentic information with us. Please share something more knowledgeable like that.
Please don’t shut down the service. Rather excellent idea.
I agree please keep the service open and available
I agree please keep the service open and available
Please don’t shut down, PubMed publications are still more reliable
Yes, please don’t shut down, PubMed publications are still more reliable
