List of Serials Indexed for Online Users, 2015 Available in XML

List of Serials Indexed for Online Users, 2015 Available in XML. NLM Tech Bull. 2015 Jan-Feb;(402):b6.

February 11, 2015 [posted]

The List of Serials Indexed for Online Users (LSIOU), 2015 edition, is now available in XML format. The 2015 edition contains 14,856 serial titles, including titles currently indexed for MEDLINE as well as titles indexed over time which have ceased or changed titles. The titles are listed alphabetically by the journal title abbreviation.

Tailored lists of indexed journals may be generated from the NLM Catalog. While the XML version of the LSIOU is a snapshot in time, the results of a search in the NLM Catalog will provide a "real time" list for the LSIOU.

For a "real time" list for the LSIOU:
Enter reportedmedline in the search box and click "Search"

For a list of only the currently indexed MEDLINE journals:
enter currentlyindexed in the search box and click "Search"
Display and sort formats are selected from the results page:

click on the Display Settings pull-down to choose a display format (for example, the Journal display) and an appropriate sort (for example, Title or Title Abbreviation)

To save the entire list as one document:

click on the "Send to" pull-down, "File" as the destination, choose a format and sort order, and then click "Create File." Click "Save" in the File Download pop-up box. Provide your directory location and desired file name.

Additional information about journals indexed for MEDLINE can be found via the links from the MEDLINE/PubMed Resources Web page. This page includes Journals Recently Accepted by NLM for Inclusion in MEDLINE, a list of titles selected by the Literature Selection Technical Review Committee (LSTRC) that meets three times per year in February, June, and October. Results from those meetings appear online about six weeks after each meeting, both on the Web page and in the NLM Catalog.
