Clio' New Clothes: Electronic Journals for History and Some Considerations for Reference Service

摘要

The last decade of the Twentieth Century finds historians working in a rapidly changing information environment. This article reviews one of those areas of change, the publication of electronic journals. The use of these journals from a reference librarian's point of view is discussed. An analysis of the indexing and abstracting coverage of the electronic journals is also included. Citations and descriptions of relevant Web sites for identifying electronic journals are given.
