PubMed
PubMed is an online source provided by the National Library of Medicine that features millions of citations for biomedical literature from Medline, life science journals, and eBooks. Citations may include links to full-text content from the Chamberlain Library, PubMed Central, and publisher websites.
Log in
The PubMed database is a free online resource, so it does not require a login. However, we recommend using the links to the database from the library homepage or using the link below rather than going directly to PubMed as these will provide links to materials in the Chamberlain Library from the PubMed results.

- Results by Year (use the date range slider)

- Article Type (select one or multiple)
- Select the link for the article to open the detailed record.
- Under Full Text Links in the upper-right corner of the record, you may see links to the full text of the article provided by the publisher, the Chamberlain Library, or both. The image below highlights two full text links: one to Elsevier and one to the Chamberlain Library. If it is available, always select the link for Chamberlain Library first as you may hit a paywall through the publisher link.
