The New PubMed is Here!

Posted on May 18, 2020 by Robin

If you’ve visited PubMed lately, chances are you’ve noticed it has a new look and feel. The “new” PubMed is now the default search interface for PubMed, replacing the legacy version. In addition to a new look, the new PubMed offers a mobile optimized site and new search features.

Want to learn more about the new PubMed? Register for our next open workshop on May 20.

And remember, if you have questions or need help with the new PubMed, just Ask Us!

On June 19, 1865, freedom reached the last enslave

On June 19, 1865, freedom reached the last enslaved Black Americans in Galveston, Texas, marking a turning point in history. Today, the MSK Library honors #Juneteenth by reflecting on the past, recognizing the struggle and recommitting to equity, justice, and the power of knowledge. May the legacy of Juneteenth inspire us all to create a more just and inclusive tomorrow.

It's June and it's Pride month! This is a time to celebrate the diversity, resilience, and contributions of the LGBTQ+ community. At the MSK Library, we are committed to fostering inclusion, ensuring equitable access to health information, and creating a welcoming space where all identities are seen and valued.

In honor of Pride, we're proud to share a thoughtful reflection from one of our former colleagues, Antonio DeRosa, a true advocate for authenticity and community.

Celebrating Pride: Antonio DeRosa, Associate Director, Patient & Community Education, Marketing and Communication

“That’s the beauty of the rainbow, right? Up close, the colors might clash or seem mismatched, but when you take a step back, you see something vibrant and beautiful.”

For Antonio DeRosa, this perspective isn’t just a metaphor for Pride Month - it’s a reflection of how he lives and works every day.

“Each of us brings our own experience and identity,” he continues, “and that deserves to be accepted and celebrated.”

Antonio’s career has been shaped by curiosity, purpose, and a deep commitment to health equity. Guided by a passion for empowering communities through education, he has built a distinctive path at the crossroads of healthcare communication, information access, and inclusion.

With a BA in English from SUNY New Paltz and an MS in library and information science from Pratt Institute, Antonio joined MSK in 2010, contributing across the library, editorial services, and radiology teams. After a brief time at Weill Cornell, he earned his EdD in educational leadership in healthcare administration from Aspen University in 2021—further grounding his mission to make health information more accessible, meaningful, and impactful.

He returned to MSK that same year, bringing fresh insight and a continued passion for patient-centered education. In his current role, Antonio leads the development of accessible, inclusive educational materials for patients, caregivers, and the broader community.

We're proud to share that three of our librarians

We're proud to share that three of our librarians (Konstantina Matsoukas, Lindsay Boyce, and Marina Rosenfield) attended MLA25. This annual conference brings together health information professionals to exchange knowledge, explore new ideas, and return with fresh perspectives to enhance our services to our community. Below we share some insights, highlights, and photos from the conference!

Our research project explored whether citation in policy documents is a research impact evaluation metric that librarians (and researchers, grant writers, etc.) should be incorporating into their workflow when attempting to measure/demonstrate biomedical research impact.

March: March is dedicated to recognizing the strength, resilience, and achievements of women across all fields. From paving the way for future generations to driving meaningful progress, women continue to shape history. Let’s celebrate their contributions, champion equality, and uplift one another to create a more inclusive future.

With tomorrow being Int'l Women's Day, we would like to kick off celebrating a woman that transformed the field for medical librarians...Estelle Brodman:

Estelle Brodman (1914–2007) was a pioneering medical librarian who revolutionized how medical information is accessed and managed. As Chief of the National Library of Medicine’s Reference Division and later a professor at Washington University, she championed the use of technology in medical librarianship, helping transition from print-based to electronic information systems.

Her leadership, research, and advocacy helped modernize medical libraries, making medical knowledge more accessible to healthcare professionals and researchers.
