Published by Susan Searing, Women's Studies Librarian University of Wisconsin System 112A Memorial Library 728 State Street Madison, Wisconsin 53706 (608) 263- 5754 a current listing of contents Volume 7, Number 4 Winter 1988

Periodical 1i terature is the cutting edge of women's scholarship, feminist theory, and much of women's culture. Feminist Periodicals: A Current Listing of Contents is published by the Office of the University of Wisconsin System Women's Studies Librarian on a quarterly basis with the intent of increasing public awareness of feminist periodicals. It is our hope that Feminist Periodicals wi 11 serve several purposes: to keep the reader abreast of current topics in feminist literature; to increase readers' famil iarity with a wide spectrum of feminist periodicals; and to provide the requisite bibliographic information should a reader wish to subscribe to a journal or to obtain a particular article at her library or through interlibrary loan. (Users will need to be aware of the limitations of the new copyright law with regard to photocopying of copyrighted materials.)

Table of contents pages from current issues of major feminist journals are reproduced in each issue of Feminist Periodicals, preceded by a comprehensive annotated listing of all journals we have selected. As publication schedules vary enormously, not every periodical will have table of contents pages reproduced in each issue of FP. The annotated listing provides the following information on each journal :

Year of first publication. Frequency of pub1 icati on. U.S. subscription price(s). Subscription address. Current editor. Editorial address (if different from subscription address). International Standard Seri a1 s Number (ISSN) . Library of Congress (LC) catalog card number. OCLC, Inc. Control Number. Locations where the journal is held in the UW System. Publications in which the journal is indexed. Subject focus/state~nent of purpose of the journal.

Please note that in the actual text, only the numbers 1 to 12 are used to identify .the different categories of information. ii.

Our goal is to have represented in FP all English-language feminist periodicals with a substantial national or regional readers hip, with an emphasis on scholarly journals and small press offerings. We do not include publications which, thouyh feminist in philosophy, do not focus solely on women's issues. Nor, with the exception of -Ms., do we include newsstand magazines. We are also forced to omi t periodicals which lack a complete table of contents. We encourage feminist serials to build a full table of contents into their regular format to facilitate the indexing femi nist 1i terature sorely needs.

Interested readers wi 11 find more com~leteinformation on feminist periodicals in The IndexIDi rectory of' Women's Media pub1 ished annually by the Women's Institute for Freedom of the Press (3306 Ross Place, NW, Washi ngton, DC 20008) ; and in Women's ~eriodicalsand ~ewspa~ers: union List of the Holdings of Madison Area Libraries, edited by James P. Danky, compiled by Maureen E. Hady,- - Barry Christopher, and Neil1 E. Strache (~oston:LK. Hal 1, 1982).

Suggestions for improvements of Femi nist Periodicals are grateful ly received. We would particularly appreciate assistance from readers in the UW System with our efforts to keep. the holding information complete and up- to-date. Please let us know about new subscriptions, subscriptions we have over1 ooked, cancellations, or other pertinent information. Femi nist Periodicals is also available on microfilm at the library of the State Hi storical Soci ety of Wisconsi n.
