NCBI My Bibliography

Using the NCBI My Bibliography tool to create a publicly accessible list of your publications

What is My Bibliography?

My Bibliography is a tool that allows you to save your citations from PubMed, or citations entered manually, to a single list that can be shared via download or a publicly accessible link. When creating an NIH Biosketch using the SciENcv tool, you can easily add the public link to this bibliography. The My Bibliography tool also allows you to monitor your NIH Public Access policy compliance.

Adding Citations to My Bibliography from PubMed

After logging in to My NCBI, go to the PubMed search page. You can search using the basic search box, or use the Single Citation Matcher to search for yourself as an author.

Once you have selected you publications from the search results list, use the Send To menu, on the right above the search results, to add them to your My Bibliography.

After the citations have been added, you will see a confirmation message that "New items were added to your bibliography" and a link to edit your bibliography.
