- Description
- Bookshelf, the books division of the NLM Literature Archive (LitArch) at the National Center for
Biotechnology Information (NCBI), is an online searchable collection of books, reports, databases,
and other scholarly literature in biology, medicine, and the life sciences. Bookshelf has a

topics as defined in the NLM Collection
