STM publisher Elsevier, Netherlands, has announced that 45 French-language medical journals from Elsevier Masson will be available on ScienceDirect beginning January 3, 2008.
The titles, including Feuillets de Radiologie, Journal de Chirurgie and La Press Médicale, represent a wide range of high-quality journals and complement the 27 Éditions Scientifique et Médicales Elsevier (ESME) titles already hosted on the platform. The move is in response to growing customer demand in French-speaking territories for French-language content. Also, the global publisher seeks to further its local-language publishing programme, which is making a wealth of important content accessible globally.
The 45 titles, that will be added, date from the early 19th and 20th centuries and have strong ties with some of the most valued French Societies such as the French Society of Rheumatology, the French Society of Anaesthesiology and the French Society of Pediatrics. All of the journals to be added consist of high-quality articles, reviews and case reports. In addition, a number of the journals include some abstracts and articles in English. Subscribers will benefit from the current (2008) articles as well as four years in backfiles.
The Elsevier Masson collection on ScienceDirect will evolve with new titles added each year through new launches and acquisitions.
