 <h2>Data Access</h2>
 <p>
 Since OMIM has only allowed Data queries within individual chromosomes, no download files are
 available from the Genome Browser. Full genome datasets can be downloaded directly from the
 <a href="https://omim.org/downloads/" target="_blank">OMIM Downloads page</a>.
 All genome-wide downloads are freely available from OMIM after registration.</p>
 <p>
 UCSC offers queries within chromosomes from 
 <a href="hgTables" target=_blank>Table Browser</a> that include a variety
 of filtering options and cross-referencing other datasets using our
 <a href="hgIntegrator" target=_blank>Data Integrator</a> tool. 
 UCSC also has an <a href="../goldenPath/help/api.html" target=_blank>API</a>
 that can be used to retrieve data in JSON format from a particular chromosome range.</p>
 
+<p>If you need the OMIM data in exactly the format of the UCSC Genome Browser,
+please create a user account and contact OMIM via <a
+href="https://omim.org/contact">https://omim.org/contact</a> and send them your OMIM
+account name and request access to the UCSC Genome Browser 'entitlement'. They will 
+then grant you access to a MySQL/MariaDB data dump with all UCSC Genome Browser OMIM tables.

 <h4>Example: Retrieve phenotype, Mode of Inheritance, and other OMIM data within a range</h4>
 <ol>
 <li>Go to <a href="hgTables">Table Browser</a>, make sure the right dataset is selected:
 group: Phenotype and Literature, track: OMIM Genes, table: <tt>omimGene2</tt>.</li>
 <li>Define region of interest by entering coordinates or a gene symbol into the &quot;Position&quot; textbox, such as
 chr1:11,166,591-11,322,608 or MTOR, or upload a list.</li>
 <li>Format your data by setting the &quot;Output format&quot; dropdown to &quot;selected fields from primary
