Get in shape with the Library!

The beginning of a new year is a great time to make a fresh start. For many of us this means hitting the gym and working with a personal trainer. Your writing and publishing muscles might be ready for a good workout as well. If that’s the case, consider the Library as your publishing gym and the librarians as your personal trainers for research and writing. Here is a 4-week “workout” plan you can follow during the month of January (or at any time during the year). Make strengthening your writing skills part of your New Year’s resolutions for 2020!
Week 1
Make a clean sweep! Organize those folders of article PDFs with a citation manager!
- Collaborate with colleagues. We have guides for EndNote, RefWorks, Mendeley, and Zotero. Each guide has its own Collaboration tab.
- Cite it right! Meet your publisher’s style requirements – see our Authors Toolkit.
- Reach out to your personal trainer to learn how to annotate your PDFs using EndNote or Mendeley.
Week 2
Sign up for ORCiD!
Week 3
Fine tune your publishing skills!
Week 4
Search smarter, not harder!
- Learn how to navigate the new PubMed.
- Explore databases beyond PubMed: Embase, Global Health, SciFinder, Web of Science, and more.
- Meet with your personal trainer to pump up your search skills.
Bonus Workout
There’s an app for that!
- Peruse our list of mobile resources and download a few.
- Check out the calculators in uCentral.
- Build a differential diagnosis using VisualDx.
- Dynamed Plus.
- Browse your favorite journal’s most recent issue in BrowZine or Read by QXMD.

Lost & Found

We are cleaning out our lost and found! Any items that are not claimed by the end of the month will be sent off to charity or discarded. If you've lost an item, describe it to anyone at the Circulation Desk, and if we have it, we'll return it to you.

When An Emergency Strikes…

During severe weather events, the New York City Severe Weather site will provide useful information to help you and your family stay safe.
And as always, be sure that you are prepared. Make an emergency plan with members of your household so you know what to do, how to find each other, and how to communicate in an emergency.
For real-time weather information and forecast updates, visit the National Weather Service.

Data Knowledge Portal For Parkinson’s Disease

The Accelerating Medicines Partnership Parkinson’s disease (AMP PD) program announces the launch of the AMP PD Knowledge Portal. This important resource combines data from several large studies to spur new research for Parkinson’s.
Researchers can apply for access to the knowledge portal and interact with the entire data set through a single data use agreement on the AMP PD website.
