PubGet.com - Get PDFs of Medical Articles Right Away
You probably have heard of PubMed, the an online resource for medical articles and resources, operated by the government. Pubget aims to mimic Pubmed with the exception that it gives you PDFs right away.
The site was created to save scientists and doctors’ time. Rather than having to search for literature and then download it for reading, Pubget fetches content and delivers it as a PDF which means doctors have more time to save lives and cure diseases. To use it, you simply perform a search as you normally would, and PubGet will find you the PDF file. Currently Pubget is supported by five institutions—Harvard, Harvard Medical School, Massachusetts General Hospital, MIT and the University of Queensland. This means it can access those library collections. PubGet is still fairly new, so expect many more features to come.
Pubget.com In their own words
“Pubget is like Pubmed, except you get the PDFs right away.
Each year, scientists and doctors spend more than a quarter billion minutes searching for biomedical literature online. This is time that could better be spent exploring science and curing disease. Pubget was founded to give you that time back.”Why Pubget.com might be a killer
Even if you do know how to find info fast, Pubget is faster. It gets to the source right away; you don’t have to wade through descriptions and download options. With Pubget the information is right at your finger tips; it saves time and that time saved could be used for more valuable causes.
Some questions about Pubget.com
What other features are coming? Will the search function be expanded to include filters and more options? Will the UI get a re-design to facilitate ease of use?
