The National Center for Biotechnology Information (NCBI) has announced an upcoming update to the data services provided through PubMed’s public FTP servers. These revisions are part of a broader effort to improve the accessibility, consistency, and performance of bibliographic data distributed via FTP.
PubMed, a widely used biomedical literature database hosted by NCBI, offers various data sets through publicly accessible FTP servers, enabling researchers, developers, and data scientists to integrate literature data into their tools and analyses. The planned update is expected to streamline data access, refine the structure of the exported files, and provide more reliable formatting for automated processing.
NCBI encourages users who rely on these data feeds to stay informed about the planned changes and adjust any automated systems or workflows accordingly. Additional technical guidance and specific details regarding the changes will be made available on the NCBI website in the coming weeks.
These updates reflect NCBI’s ongoing commitment to maintaining high standards of data quality and accessibility for the global scientific community. Users are advised to monitor the NCBI Technical Bulletin and official communications for further updates and implementation timelines.
