  • Support for Authors Apcs
    PUBLICATION SUPPORT FOR AUTHOR ARTICLE PROCESSING CHARGES (APCs) Selected UT Southwestern Library journal subscriptions provide discounted Article Processing Charges (APCs) for authors. Publishers use discounted APCs to encourage open access (OA) publishing. Publishers do not apply discounts automatically. The corresponding UT Southwestern author should inform the publisher of the Library benefit when submitting articles. This list is as comprehensive as possible. As we learn about additional APC discounts, we will continue to update this list. ACS Publications (American Chemical Society) The Library’s All Publications ACS subscription guarantees an APC discount for UTSW authors in various ACS publications. Additionally, individual ACS members may also be eligible for discounts. More information: https://pubs.acs.org/page/4authors/authorchoice/index.html Biochemical Society (Portland Press) All articles accepted for publication from corresponding UTSW authors will be automatically published in the following journals as open access with no separate article processing charges: • Biochemical Journal • Emerging Topics in Life Sciences • Biochemical Society Transactions • Essays in Biochemistry • Bioscience Reports • Neuronal Signaling • Clinical Science Cost avoidance of APC charges results from Library funding of the publisher's transformative “read and publish” combined subscription model. More information: https://portlandpress.com/pages/open_access_policy BMJ Case Reports Note: This is not an open access program. A benefit of the Library’s subscription to this journal is cost avoidance for author submission of case reports. Because of the Library's Institutional Fellowship, corresponding UTSW authors do not need to pay the Individual Fellowship Fee to publish in this journal. You must include the Institutional Fellowship code when submitting case studies for publication.

  • Which Peer-Reviewed Journals Publish the Most on Diabetes?1
    135 FEATURE / MANCHETTE Which peer-reviewed journals publish the most on diabetes?1 Christine J. Neilson and Daniel D. Neilson Neilson and Neilson 140 Abstract: Objectives – A list of the major peer-reviewed journals that publish on diabetes has not been published to date. This article briefly describes a project to compile a list of peer-reviewed English-language journals that publish the most on the topic of diabetes. Methods – We used the PubMed and CINAHL Plus databases to identify relevant articles published in English between 2003 and 2007. The number of citations for each journal was totalled, and the peer-reviewed status of the journals topping the list was determined. Results – We present a list of 100 peer-reviewed journals relevant to the topic of diabetes that is based on a larger list compiled for the Canadian Diabetes Educator Certification Board. The list includes a mix of general medicine journals and specialty journals. Discussion–Anum- ber of technical setbacks were overcome to determine which scholarly journals publish the most articles of potential interest to health practitioners with an interest in diabetes. This list can inform the current awareness activities of librarians and health practitioners alike, and may be useful from the perspective of collection development.

  • Aacp Core List of Journals for Pharmacy Education
    AACP CORE LIST OF JOURNALS FOR PHARMACY EDUCATION 7th Edition, 2019 Prepared by: Robert D. Becketta, PharmD; Skye Bicketb, DHSc, MLIS; Kayce Gillc, MIS; Neyda Gilmand, MILS; Jason Guye, PharmD; Pam Hargwoodf, MLIS; Jennifer Hartmang, PharmD; Rebecca Hooverh; Tim Hutchersoni, PharmD; Jennifer Martinj, MIRLS; John Redwanskik, PharmD; Christina M. Seegerg, CPhT, MLS, AHIP Introduction The 7th edition of the AACP Core List of Journals for Pharmacy Education (Core Journals List) is a companion list to AACP Basic Resources for Pharmacy Education, and is an updated version of the 2016 Core Journals List. The update was conducted by an interdisciplinary task force of drug information specialists and pharmacy librarians. The goals for this update were to refine the previous list using similar, systematic collection methods. Similar to the previous update, the goal was to produce a final list containing 200 to 300 journals. The Core Journals List is a service project of the Library and Information Sciences Section of AACP. It is intended to provide information that assists with collection development as applied to the curriculum of the particular school or college of pharmacy for which it is being used. The Core Journals List is produced as a guide for those developing or maintaining the library collections that serve colleges and schools of pharmacy. While the recommended journals are suitable for all pharmacy college libraries, not all pharmacy college libraries should feel obligated to purchase every title on the list. Each pharmacy program has its own mission and program(s), so each college’s library’s collection must reflect that mission and support the college’s curricula.
