LinkOut is a service that allows organizations external to NCBI to add and update links to their own resources from individual records in NCBI databases such as PubMed. This service provides visitors convenient access to outside resources that are intended to extend, clarify, and supplement information found in NCBI databases.

Publishers, libraries, institutional repositories, and scientific databases are able to register as LinkOut Providers in order to connect their online resources to NCBI database records.
