New Look for ClinicalTrials.gov

In September 2007, NLM's ClinicalTrials.gov launched a new web interface http://ClinicalTrials.gov/beta , which represents the first significant change to the interface since February 2000. A live link to the beta site (http://clinicaltrials.gov/ct2/home) is available from the clinicaltrials.gov site. The new interface will run in parallel with the previous version, and after appropriate testing, the new user interface will permanently replace the previous version, approximately two to four weeks after launch.

A Technical Bulletin article describing the features and improvements included in the new interface is available at: http://www.nlm.nih.gov/pubs/techbull/so07/so07_clinical_trials.html. To summarize, the new features include the ability to highlight search terms, more display options, and additional capabilities for viewing studies and search results by topic. Also, improvements were made to "Advanced Search" mode and the display by location on the world map.

ClinicalTrials.gov is the NLM(r)-developed Web-based registry of clinical research studies. It provides patients, clinicians, researchers, and members of the general public with access to information about interventional and observational studies including clinical trials of drugs, devices and other interventions. As of August 2007, ClinicalTrials.gov contained over 44,000 clinical research studies in all fifty states and in 150 countries.

Elsevier Science Direct Cuts/Adds

We need your input. The UH Manoa Libraries (Hamilton) has just announced that in order to address a $1.5 million budget deficit, the UHM Library plans to cut approximately 2/3 of the electronic journals published or distributed by Elsevier (ScienceDirect). We in the Health Sciences Library have been aware of this and have assembled a separate list of Elsevier journal titles that we believe are critical to the work of our students and faculty. We would like your input as we cull this list. Please email Ginny Tanji at tanji@hawaii.edu or call her at 692-0810.

The JABSOM list is posted on our website at http://www.hawaii.edu/hslib/Jabsom%20Master%20SD%20Adds.pdf

Also, please give your input to the librarians at Hamilton. They are seeking student and faculty input before making a final decision. Please review the website below, and stop by Hamilton Library during one of the following days (Wed, May 2, Fri, May 5 or Tues, May 8, 9-5) to ask questions and provide input.
