Peer review in journals indexed in Index Medicus.

OBJECTIVE: To determine whether peer review policies are published in English-language journals indexed in Index Medicus and, secondarily, to obtain information on the peer review practices of such journals. DESIGN: Examined one issue of a sample of all journal titles written in English and indexed in Index Medicus, and all indexed English-language journals in four subject fields. A questionnaire was sent to the editors of journals in the subject fields requesting information on their peer review practices. SETTING: Journals received at the National Library of Medicine. PARTICIPANTS: Editors of journals in four subject fields. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURE: Existence of a printed statement of the peer review process for manuscripts. RESULTS: Although the editors queried in the four subject fields indicated that overall, 56% to 65% of the articles were peer reviewed, clear statements about their peer review practices were not found in half of their journals or in the overall sample. CONCLUSIONS: Editors should publish clear statements of the peer review process followed for each type of article published in their journals.

Where there is no vision the people perish.

Forces are already in motion that will change the future of health sciences librarianship. In addition to changes in academic health centers, changes in the publishing industry, the mode of delivering information by librarians, the use of computers to manipulate and make information available, the user's access to information, and communications technology are briefly described. The author proposes that health sciences librarians can participate in the creative process of constructing their professional future by being informed, expanding cooperative efforts, planning, ceasing a romanticized view of the profession, and becoming achievers rather than sustainers.
