1. Introduction

MEDLINE (Medical Literature Analysis and Retrieval System Online, or MEDLARS Online) is a bibliographic database of life sciences and biomedical information. It includes bibliographic information for articles from academic journals covering medicine, nursing, pharmacy, dentistry, veterinary medicine, and health care. It was established in 1964 as MEDLARS (Medical Literature Analysis and Retrieval System), a computerized storage and retrieval  system at the US’s National Library of Medicine (NLM) to provide for bibliographic access to the NLM’s large biomedical literature collection. MEDLINE also covers much of the literature in biology and biochemistry, as well as fields such as molecular evolution. Compiled by the  National Library of Medicine (NLM) of United States, MEDLINE is freely available on the Internet and is searchable via PubMed and NLM's National Centre for Biotechnology Information's Entrez system.

MEDLARS, as a project grew out of the National Library of Medicine Index Mechanization Project of 1958-60. The system operated at the beginning of 1964. MEDLARS is a computerized information retrieval system with three major types of products: (1) one-shot demand searches on questions of great complexity, (2) recurring bibliographies in special fields of the medical sciences, and (3) composition of a comprehensive periodical index, theIndex Medicus.
