Are Journals in JSTOR Current Serials? Gibbons, Dennis 22 Aug 2007 21:18 UTC

Line 26 of the Academic Libraries Survey asks for the number of current serial titles held at the end of the Fiscal Year. The instructions for line 26 read:

Part D - Library Collections
Current serial titles (line 26) - Report the total number of titles in all formats. If the title comes in
both paper and electronic form, count it twice. Count each individual title if it is received as part
of a publisher's package. Include paper and microfilm government documents issued serially if
they are accessible through the library's catalog. Report indexing and abstracting services that
may contain full-text in line 27.

Do any libraries count JSTOR journals as current serial titles?
