2. NNLM Class: MeSH Changes and PubMed Searching

   
   When MeSH is updated each year, your PubMed searches may be affected. Join us for "MeSH Changes and PubMed Searching" to learn:
   
   • How do MeSH changes affect your PubMed searches?
   • What happens when a term gets changed, added, or removed; or moved to a different part of the MeSH hierarchy?
   • How do you accommodate vocabulary changes over time in your comprehensive searches?
   • How do you check your saved searches and alerts?
