American Malacological Bulletin to be on BioOne
Dear Readers,
I am happy to announce that beginning in January 2009, the American Malacological Bulletin will be available on BioOne (www.bioone.org), an essential electronic aggregation of over 140 cutting-edge bioscience research journals. Volumes 22-25, as well as current issues published in 2009 and onwards, will be available in both PDF and XML formats. The Bulletin will be available to all institutional subscribers of the BioOne.2 collection. Libraries wishing to subscribe or those with any questions should contact BioOne directly. We are also working on developing a link through our web page to allow subscribers to download pdfs of papers. Our hope is that this increased electronic visibility of our journal will add to its stature and allow us to recruit cutting edge papers on malacology.
