Electronic access to on-line information is now available for dentists. One such resource is MEDLINE, a database of more than 7,500,000 biomedical references indexed by the National Library of Medicine. MEDLINE searching can be performed on-line or locally using a CD-ROM drive. Dentists should evaluate equipment requirements, availability of training, extent of the bibliographic database, ease of using the searching software and adequacy of documentation before selecting a mode of MEDLINE access.
现在牙医可以通过电子方式获取在线信息。其中一个资源是MEDLINE，它是一个由美国国立医学图书馆索引的包含超过750万篇生物医学参考文献的数据库。可以通过在线方式或使用光盘驱动器在本地进行MEDLINE检索。在选择MEDLINE访问方式之前，牙医应评估设备要求、培训的可获得性、书目数据库的范围、搜索软件的易用性以及文档的充分性。
