Journals with book reviews summary Heather Cannon 27 Jul 2005 16:44 UTC

I had some requests to post my findings in answer to a question I asked
about finding a list of medical journals that contain book reviews.

Apparently there isn't a list out there already ready-made. :-(

Ulrichsweb.com can be used to compile a list by combining search
elements and limiters.

The University of Adelaide Library has a webpage with hints on finding
book lists and book reviews in scientific disciplines at
http://www.library.adelaide.edu.au/guide/sci/Generalsci/databases.html#rev

Along with some emails that gave me names of a few journal titles, I
did my own searching using ScienceDirect, PubMed, Ovid Medline, and Ovid
PsychInfo.

Then after a lot of copying and pasting of citations the use of regular
expressions - I was able to create a list of journal titles.  The list
is _definitely_ not comprehensive, but it was the best I could come up
with before the patron who wants the list comes to see me at 1 p.m.
today. ;-)

If anyone is interested in receiving a .txt file of the titles I found,
email me off-list and I'll send it to you.

Thanks,
