Johns Hopkins POPLINE Database Now Available Online
Maintained by the Johns Hopkins Population Information Program, Internet POPLINE is updated every two weeks and offers the only com- plete, up-to-date Internet location for POPLINE records. Approximately 10,000 records are added annually. (POPLINE records are no longer available through the U.S. National Library of Medicine's IGM or PubMed systems.) The new Internet POPLINE's current awareness search allows users to save time by easily limiting their searches to the most current en- tries. Plans are underway to offer "relevance" scores to search re- sults and a "shopping cart" feature for document delivery is under development. For those in developing countries who may have limited access to the Internet, POPLINE will continue to distribute POPLINE on CD-ROM to over 950 sites twice a year. For more details about this service go to: http://www.jhuccp.org/popline/popcd.stm POPLINE Digital Services also provides full text documents of many of its abstracts in the database at no charge for readers in developing countries. Full-text documents are only available if the information is not available locally, is not a commercially published book, and is less than 100 pages in length. POPLINE sends full-text documents as an e-mail attachment in Adobe Acrobat format or by mail.
