           _All That JAS: Journal Abbreviation Sources_

  I am pleased to announce the establishment of a new registry of Web
sites that list or provide access to the full title of abbreviated journal
titles. The registry is appropriately titled _All That JAS: Journal
Abbreviation Sources_ and is accessible at
http://www.public.iastate.edu/~CYBERSTACKS/JAS.htm

Sites have been categorized within broad subject groupings (e.g., General,
Agriculture, Biosciences, Chemistry, Economics, Mathematics, Medicine)

   In addition to separate listings or access for abbreviated journal
title, selective OPACs that offer abbreviated title searching are also
included. Some sites also provide access to the full title of other types
of abbreviated publications (e.g., conference proceedings)

    I would most appreciate learning of other candidate sites that offer
access to the full title of abbreviated publication titles for any subject
for future incorporation within _All That JAS_

    Thanks!
