This open access, peer-reviewed journal explores the many roles of librarians in supporting eScience and includes articles related to education, outreach, collaborations and current practices on data-driven research in the physical, biological, and medical sciences. JESLIB will include special features such as book reviews and information on new technologies on subjects of interest to eScience librarians. This project has been partially funded by the National Library of Medicine, National Institutes of Health, Department of Health and Human Services, under Contract No. N01-LM-6-3508 with the University of Massachusetts Medical School. To access this journal, go to The TMC Library ejournal portal by clicking on “Find Library Materials” from the library website and then type the journal name into the search box.  New Database: Methods Navigator Methods Navigator provides a time-saving structure for life scientists that facilitates search, retrieval and application of correct laboratory methods. Drawing on content from Methods in Enzymology, Methods in Cellular Biology, and more than 40,000 articles from 15 primary and methods journals (all published by Elsevier,) Methods Navigator also includes 120 of the most commonly-used protocols. The database combines multiple taxonomies into a single ontology to search across these resources (organized into 60,000 topics) for the methods and protocols you need. Individual (free) registration allows you to bookmark materials for quick retrieval from a personal storage area called MyMethods. Protocols can also be downloaded to a computer and opened with Word; users are free to edit them and upload the changed documents into MyMethods, from which point they can also be shared with other Methods Navigator users. Accessing "Help" opens a pop-up window with Help contents and a link on the top menu to a short 3-part video tutorial. Scopus users will notice many familiar search and filtering features in Methods Navigator.  To access Methods Navigator, you need to activate JavaScript and use a browser updated within the past year. For questions regarding Methods Navigator, contact the Reference and Outreach Department via chat, e-mail or phone at: http://www.library.tmc.edu/ask  Free Access to PowerPoint Slides From Articles in New England Journal of Medicine  The New England Journal of Medicine is currently offering a free six-months trial to individual users wanting to access PowerPoint slides that accompany an article.
