Overview

Have you ever found yourself walking a person through several steps using cumbersome multi-volume works to determine which sources index a particular journal? Have you found yourself faced with difficult decisions to make about your collections because your subscription budget was cut? The Index Guide to College Journals is a simple one-volume work that will save time and energy. Librarians and library users alike will find this work an efficient reference source indexing approximately 16,000 journal titles represented in 48 core indexes used in college and public libraries. Emphasis is on English language sources to best facilitate undergraduate level research and to represent popular journal usage. The journal name and the indexes (print and electronic) that provide subject access to that journal are provided in listings alphabetical by journal name. Each listing also provides the ISSN of the journal, facilitating Inter-Library Loan requests. To aid the library patron, an appendix offers broad categories for the indexes themselves. Suzanne Milton and Elizabeth Malia found themselves regularly searching through indexing tools to answer simple questions. They created this reference so that, in one easy-to-use volume, all of those questions could be answered quickly. No academic or medium-to-large public library will want to be without it.
