Promotion to MEDLINE, indexing with Medical Subject Headings, and open data policy for the Journal of Educational Evaluation for Health Professions
On March 24, 2016, I received a follow-up message from the Literature Selection Technical Review Committee (LSTRC) of the Electronic Journals Support Team, United States National Library of Medicine (NLM), stating that “final approval for inclusion in MEDLINE/PubMed is contingent on the journal being fully compliant with current MEDLINE Indexing Policy for electronic journals found at http://www.nlm.nih. gov/bsd/policy/ejournals.html
MEDLINE indexing of Journal of Educational Evaluation for Health Professions will begin with Volume 13, 2016.”
Summary
Promotion to MEDLINE, indexing with Medical Subject Headings, and open data policy for the Journal of Educational Evaluation for Health Professions. MEDLINE citations are indexed with NLM Medical Subject Headings (MeSH®) and are directly searchable from NLM as a subset of the PubMed® database.” After reading the follow-up message, I checked the NLM Catalog, and found that the Journal of Educational Evaluation for Health Professions (JEEHP) is indexed in MEDLINE (Fig. 1). There are two benefits in particular to inclusion in MEDLINE: being searchable from PubMed, and being indexed by Medical Subject Heading (MeSH).
