ScienceDirect to Host French-Language Journals ...
AMSTERDAM, the Netherlands, December 12 /PRNewswire/ --
- Forty-five Prestigious Journals to be Launched on ScienceDirect in
Response to Customer Demand
Elsevier, a leading publisher of scientific, technical and
medical (STM) information, today announced that 45 French-language medical
journals from Elsevier Masson will be available on ScienceDirect beginning
January 3, 2008.
The titles, including Feuillets de Radiologie, Journal de
Chirurgie and La Press Medicale, represent a wide range of high-quality
journals and complement the 27 Editions Scientifique et Medicales Elsevier
(ESME) titles already hosted on the platform. The importance of this content
addition is two-fold: it is a response to growing customer demand in
French-speaking territories for French-language content, and it furthers
Elsevier's local-language publishing program, which is making a wealth of
important content accessible globally.
"We are always striving to respond positively to customer
requests and deliver the content that will help them in their research," said
Jay Katzen, Managing Director, Academic & Government Products. "The addition
of this world-class local-language content meets both of these objectives and
ensures that ScienceDirect continues to remain a comprehensive and complete
platform."
The 45 titles that will be added date from the early 19th and
20th centuries and have strong ties with some of the most revered French
Societies including the French Society of Rheumatology, the French Society of
Anaesthesiology and the French Society of Pediatrics. The variety of
specialist coverage is notable, with journal subjects ranging from
anaesthesiology to pharmacology.
All of the journals to be added consist of high-quality articles,
reviews and case reports. In addition, a number of the journals include some
abstracts and articles in English. Subscribers will benefit from the current
(2008) articles as well as four years in backfiles.
The Elsevier Masson collection on ScienceDirect will evolve with
new titles added each year through new launches and acquisitions. For more
