Re: Highwire Press Free Journals

Hi Barbara,
We've also had this issue brought to our attention recently. I generally refer to the Highwire free title list:
http://highwire.stanford.edu/lists/freeart.dtl#ajprenal
I add a public note to any titles that only give access to "certain sections".
Hope that helps!
Cynthia
