Hi,
I think it depends on what academic majors and/or research you support.
The core lists I have seen, like the Brandon-Hill list, are for things
like nursing.

Hi,

We are trying to determine a core list of journals for our collection.
These would be journals that we would not cut in times of budget cuts.
Has anyone developed a core list?  If so, I am interested in what
criteria was used in selecting the titles, how it was accepted by the
teaching faculty, and how well  it is working?  Thanks for any insights
provided.
