The National Library of Medicine recently released a series of Product Guides<\/a>, and they\u2019re pretty handy. Here are a few high-impact<\/strong> ways you can use them in your organization.<\/p>\n

\"Simple<\/p>\n

1. Share them with your colleagues.<\/strong><\/em> Because each Product Guide contains suggested use cases for multiple audiences <\/strong>(including consumers, healthcare providers, information professionals and researchers), there\u2019s truly something for everyone!<\/p>\n

2. Print and display <\/strong><\/em>hard copies for commonly used products. Do you have some ClinicalTrials.gov<\/a> superusers in your space? Or what about NLM Digital Collections<\/a> afficionados? With printed copies of Product Guides, your users can grab, go, and get inspired<\/strong> at their leisure.<\/p>\n

3. Build a training or tutorial.<\/strong> <\/em>Product Guides are brief by design<\/strong>, but packed with instructional prompts <\/strong>that can jump-start your teaching efforts about NLM resources.<\/p>\n

4. Refresh your knowledge. <\/strong><\/em>Sometimes, when you know a product like the back of your hand, it\u2019s helpful to pause and get re-grounded in the intended purpose<\/strong>. At your leisure, you can scan the Product Guides and remember why you fell in love with MedlinePlus<\/a> in the first place. Or better yet\u2026<\/p>\n

5. Learn about a new product. <\/strong><\/em>With over 200 products, NLM is clearly the proverbial teacher\u2019s pet when it comes to providing access to biomedical information. That means our learning is never <\/em>done. See a product on the list you\u2019ve never heard of? Scan the guide and see what stands out!<\/strong> I am now pretty intrigued by NLM Scrubber<\/a> – but there are plenty of options for your enjoyment in our updated Product Guides.<\/a>\u00a0Happy exploring!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
