PubMed Tutorial (National Library of Medicine)
http://www.nlm.nih.gov/bsd/pubmed_tutorial/m1001.html
Web-based learning program that will show you how to search PubMed®, the National Library of Medicine's (NLM™) journal literature search system. The PubMed Tutorial includes several different types of links that may be used to play the animations, pop up glossary terms, or visit another web page.

• There are two different kinds of animation links - Show Me and Demonstration Steps. When clicked, Show Me produce an animation of the process just discussed. Demonstration Steps will take you through the process step-by-step. You do not have to click on the Steps in chronological order, although it will make more sense to do so the first time around.
• Words and phrases that appear in blue and are underlined, are links to web sites such as other pages of the Tutorial or PubMed.

Words and phrases that appear in bold blue are glossary items and can be clicked to open a secondary window containing a definition. Should you want to view the entire Glossary, click the Glossary link in the Tutorial sidebar.

Click Next in the sidebar to learn how to navigate through the modules of the PubMed Tutorial or click on the PubMed Overview tab above to jump right into learning about PubMed
