The Library recently updated the Top 25 Ejournals page, which lists the 25 electronic journals most frequently used by UT Southwestern affiliates.
With this update, 12 titles make their debut on the list:
- Biochemical & Biophysical Research Communications
- Chronicle of Higher Education
- Development
- Genes & Development
- Journal of Cell Biology
- Journal of Neuroscience
- Journal of the American Chemical Society
- Molecular & Cellular Biology
- Molecular Cell
- Nature News
- Neuron
- Organic Letters
This list is featured prominently on the Library’s Top 25 Ejournals
Why were there so many changes?
When the list was originally created, reliable usage data either was not available directly from the journals’ Web sites or could not be easily compared from journal to journal. Therefore, the only consistent measure available was the number of times users clicked on titles from within the ejournals list, but this captured (on average) only about 10% of the overall usage. Publishers now provide reliable data in a consistent and easily comparable format so the Library now uses the journal Web site data to generate the Top 25 Ejournals list.
The following titles have been removed from the list:
- American Journal of Obstetrics & Gynecology
- Annals of Internal Medicine
- Chest
- Critical Care Medicine
- Journal of Clinical Oncology
- Journal of Clinical Psychiatry
- Journal of the American College of Cardiology
- Lancet
- Neurology
- Pediatrics
- Pediatrics in Review
- Plastic & Reconstructive Surgery
