PubMed® for Librarians: Building and Refining Your Search

CLASS FORMAT:

PubMed for Librarians is made up of five one-hour segments. These five segments will be presented via Adobe Connect and recorded for archival access.

Each segment is meant to be a stand-alone module designed for each user to determine how many and in what sequence they attend.

The segments are designed to take one hour each and, if the live session is attended, along with any pre-requisite work completed, will earn one MLA Continuing Education hour.
