US Government Shutdown and MEDLINE updates

As you may already know, Ovid MEDLINE and PubMed were not updated during the recent US Government Shutdown. Ovid MEDLINE has not been updated since 2 October.

Therefore, on 23 October a larger update than normal will be published in order to catch-up. If you have alerts set up with MEDLINE, you may receive more results than normal.

After 23 October, the updating procedure will return to normal.

Ovid Medline® interface change revision

Notice from OvidSP

On June 6, 2012 Ovid made a modification to the Reprint/Medlars export, save, and print output for the Abstract field that impacted imports to bibliographic management tools. As of June 12th, Ovid has reversed this modification to the output, and the output format will revert to the previous format until this issue is resolved.
Any alerts received from June 6th through June 11th will have been affected by the output modification change. Customers with affected alerts can re-run their alerts to get the old format starting Tuesday, June 12th.
If you should have any questions concerning this change, please contact us at support@ovid.com.
