Welcome to the FIU Libraries' PubMed LibGuide. This guide will help you learn how to use PubMed, a freely accessible database developed and maintained by the U.S. National Library of Medicine that indexes more than 30 million citations in medicine, nursing, dentistry, veterinary medicine, the health care system, and the preclinical sciences.
