Published by Susan Searing, Woman's Studies Librarian University of Wisconsin System 112A Memorial Library 728 Stata Street Madison, Wisconsin 53706 (608) 263- 5754 a current listing of contents Volume 7, Number 2 Summer 1987

Periodical literature is the cutting edge of women's scholarship, femi nist theory, and much of women's culture. Feminist Periodicals: A Current Listing of Contents is published by the Office ot 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 will serve several purposes: to keep the reader abreast of current topics in feminist literature; to increase readers' fami li arity 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 wi th reyard 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 1i sting of a1 1 journals we have selected. As publ ication schedules vary enormously, not every periodical wi11 have table of contents payes reproducd in each issue of FP. The annotated listing provides the following information on each journal :

Year of first publ ication. Frequency of publ ication. U.S. subscription price(s). Subscription address. Current editor. Editorial address (if di fferent 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/statement of purpose of the journal . Please note that in the actual text, only the numbers 1 to 12 are used to identify the di fferent categories of information. ii.

Our goal is to have represented in FP all English-language femi nist periodicals with a substantial national or regional readership, with an emphasis on scholarly journals and small press offerings. We do not include publ ications which, though femi nist in phi 1osophy, do not focus solely on women's issues. Nor, with the exception of -Ms., do we include newsstand magazines. We are also forced to omit periodicals which lack a complete table of contents. We encourage feminist serials to build a full table of contents into thei r regular format to faci 1i tate the indexing femi nist 1i terature sorely needs.

Interested readers wi 11 find more complete information on femi nist periodicals in The IndexlDi rectory of Women's Media publ ished annually by the Women's Institute for Freedom of the Press (3306 Ross Place, NW, Washington, DC 20008) ; and in Women's Periodicals and Newspapers: A Union List of the Holdings of Madison Area Libraries, edited by James P. Danky, compiled by Maureen E. Hady, Barry Christopher, and Neil 1 E. Strache (Boston: G.K. Hal 1, 1982).

Suggestions for improvements of Femi nist Periodical s 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 subscri~tions. subscri~tionswe have over1ooked, cancel 1at ions, or other pertinentm-infokation. ~emini st Periodicals is also available on microfilm at the library of the State Historical Society of Wisconsin.
