Publishers


The following list of publishers (mostly journal publishers) and their web addresses is useful for several reasons, including the Publisher Verification Project in Commitments.

The data about when we've verified the publisher's list against the data in Commitments and Vera is now kept in a shared spreadsheet on Turnpike at \seracq\publisher master list.xls. It can be edited by anyone on the Ejournals Team.

Please note that we have also begun to collect publishers catalogs / price lists and are saving them on Turnpike as well. Please see \\Turnpike\publisher catalogs\ for catalogs, and please contribute whatever catalogs you may find. Anyone on the MIT Libraries staff may contribute to this directory.
