NIH releases metasearch engine
2009 November 4
NIH has recently released a metasearch engine NIH Library AllPlus Search Demo which is now available in beta mode. I came across this in the always helpful Resource Shelf, where you can find a detailed review of the demo and initial results.
Despite the name they’ve given it (a mouthful) my first impression is positive. I don’t see it replacing any one resource however it may prove a useful quick alternative for information pros and our clients who frequently search government (i.e. NCBI, NLM, and NIH resources) and the open web.
NIH Library new search site uses HealthMash Health knowledge base which is available at its own url as a medical search engine.
