There are people who have very strong opinions here, but I prsonally
consider this another good question, but again one about which no
recommendation can be realistically offerred.

Match the journals against your needs, and don't forget about Expanded
Academic Index. A related question, about which I can also offer no
recommendation, is whether a library needs more than one.
