Computer retrieval of articles on the therapy of poisonings.

This paper describes the joint efforts of the Cleveland Poison Information Center and the Cleveland Health Sciences Library to develop a workable system for scanning the current journal literature for relevant articles on the therapy of poisonings and to develop a suitable system for reorganizing the present reprint files for the city's two units of the Poison Information Center. The use of the MEDLINE computer retrieval system for retrieving relevant current articles is discussed in detail as is the proposed reorganization of the Center's reprint file.
