This guide is a central location for information regarding PubMed. The genesis of this project is the upcoming change from the Legacy PubMed to the new version referred to as either New PubMed or PubMed Labs. This terminology will be used throughout the guide to differentiate between the two distinct search tools.
The other sections of this guide present several common tasks, with side-by-side text and/or images illustrating how to do them in the Legacy PubMed and in New PubMed. These comparisons show the desktop versions of PubMed. New PubMed is intended to be used with a variety of different devices and features a mobile-friendly search.

Complete these survey questions and a UT librarian will reply.
A goal of the New PubMed is to create search functionality and features researchers value most. Thus, they encourage direct feedback to PubMed via the feedback link located at the bottom right of any New PubMed page. The New PubMed is intended to be a continually developing product, thus your continuous feedback will help make a useful and robust product.
When filling out the direct feedback form, we encourage you to notify your subject librarian as well. This will allow us to keep track of the desires or pain-points of the New PubMed, and work to find alternate solutions.
