Re: Obscure journal title - is it still in print? Barbara Gushrowski 19 May 2004 17:38 UTC

Thanks to Steve, Jennifer, Adele and Hella for their responses to my query.

I believe they have correctly identified the title as World Press Review -
which includes a section entitled World Press Report. Our library actually
holds this title through 2002.

I appreciate everyone's assistance with this question.

Barb

Sounds like the patron may be thinking of "World Press Review". Our most
recent EBSCO Serial Changes List has it listed as discontinued with
Vol.51 #5 May 2004.

The patron may be interested in the online version at
http://www.worldpress.org .

Dear list members:

A patron has called tried to find out if a magazine he calls "World News
and
Review" still exists. I have searched Ulrichs - Ebsco - Magazines for
Libraries - Google - WorldCat - and used several iterations of the title
with no luck.

Supposedly published in the 1980s in Canada - each issue of the magazine
dealt with a topic in international affairs.

Have any of you heard of this publication? Is the title correct? Has the
title changed? Patron wants to subscribe to this title if possible. Any
assistance you can offer will be much appreciated.

Thank you.
