PubMed NCBI Account Changes

NCBI (National Center for Biotechnology Information) logo

Do you login to PubMed via NCBI to use MyNCBI to save searches and alerts, or SciENcv to create and maintain an NIH Biosketch, or MyBibliography to save citations? In January, 2021 the NIH released a Technical Bulletin informing PubMed users that NCBI-managed account credentials are going away, and after June 1, 2021 users should sign into NCBI via PubMed using a federated account such as your NetID, eRA Commons, or ORCiD account login credentials.

Watch this short video by Himmelfarb Librarian Paul Levett that explains how to link an NCBI account with federated account credentials.
