Hi Sarah,
My experience in checking for status of peer-review of a journal for faculty
publications is that EBSCOnet in not comprehensive or accurate. Stick with
Ulrich and don't waste your time.

Thanks, Connie!
I got the information from Ulrich's finally. I was trying to get it in
a hurry the first time because I had a meeting to go to, but when I came
back, I had more time to play with the advanced search. However, it
would be interesting to see if the EBSCO's periodicals directory has the
same figures. I thought I could get to their online periodicals
directory via our EBSCONet login, but I'll look again.

Do you have access to the online Serials directory by EBSCO? I believe
it has a peer review listing?
