Re: The state of serials today Aline Soules 22 Feb 2006 16:57 UTC

You might try directing her to Serials Review (Elsevier) or Serials
Librarian (Haworth).  In fact, I recently completed an article for
Serials Librarian on the evolution of the definition of a serial for a
section of an upcoming issue.  Jim Cole is the editor and can tell you
when that overview section will be published.
