INDEXES/ABSTRACTS | FULLTEXT

The standard periodical indexes or index/abstracts do not provide substantial coverage of feminist or women's periodicals. Some may index one or two in their particular subject field, e.g., ATLA Religion Database on CD-ROM includes the Journal of Feminist Studies in Religion; and Hypatia is indexed by Philosopher's Index, but for a more comprehensive approach one has to depend on the following, and even they do not provide complete coverage.

Women Studies Index | Women Studies On-disc (1989+)

CD-ROM and paper (HQ1180.W68 - Table 12 in REF). Covers some 90 women's or feminist periodicals.

Women's Resources International (1972+)

An interdisciplinary database including references from Women's Studies Abstracts (1984+), New Books on Women and Feminism (1987+), Women of Color and Southern Women (1975+), The History of Women and Science, Health, and Technology (1970-1995), Women's Health and Development (1970-1996), and WAVE: Women's Audiovisuals in English (1985- 1990).

Women Studies Abstracts

1972 to date. HQ1101 W63 - Table 12 in REF. In addition to some of the major journals in the humanities and social sciences this indexes over 35 feminist journals.

Studies on Women Abstracts

1982 to date. HQ1180.S78 - Table 12 in REF. Published in Britain this too covers a fairly wide range of journals in the humanities and social sciences, and even a few in the sciences. It includes over 60 feminist or women's periodicals.

Lesbian Periodicals Index

Compiled and edited by Clare Potter. (1986) HQ75.6.U5P68 - REF. Indexes a number of lesbian periodicals, most of which are no longer in existence. Of the 42 titles represented here 24 are included in the microfilm set Herstory .

Alternative Press Index (API)

1969 to date. Z7164.S66A5 - REF. Provides a subject index to over 200 periodicals, some of which are feminist or women's periodicals. Originally designed to provide some measure of bibliographic coverage for the underground or alternative press, this included a number of titles not found elsewhere. Over the years the titles have changed, due to the transitory nature of some of the publications. In the 1960s and early 1970s API also indexed a number of the underground newspapers, many of which are included in the Underground Newspaper Microfilm Collection [shelved in Hoover]. While most of these were not feminist publications they did include a good deal of material on the Women's Liberation Movement.

Contemporary Women's Issues

(1992+). Includes reports documenting surveys and data, recognized and alternative journals whose primary focus is on issues affecting women worldwide, and newsletters. "Major sources of information include Human Rights Watch, the Alan Guttmacher Institute, the United States Government Reports, FEMNET and the Center for Women's Global Leadership. Broad subject areas cover: Health, Development, Human Rights, Legal Issues, Workplace Issues, Social Issues, Contemporary Family Life, Education, Violence and Sexual Exploitation, Lesbian Concerns, Feminism, Arts and Media, Culture and Customs, and Reproductive Rights."

Women 'R': a full text database

(1982+). Women R has quite a few longer articles, but one of it's interesting features is that it captures more ephermeral materials, some of which are no longer available to us in any other format. The journals and newsletters tend to be feminist, but they do include academic journals. It is designed to supplement rather than replace mainstream resources. "Covers regional, national and international issues that impact and reflect the lives of women, Includes full text articles, studies, essays, commentaries, reviews, literary works and more in the following subject areas: arts, business, current events, economics and finance, feminism, health, politics of beauty, sexual identity, spirituality and more. Incorporates articles from the ethnic and minority press."

PERIODICAL COLLECTIONS on MICROFORM

History of Women (Research Publications, Inc.)

MFILM N.S. 1508. In addition to books, pamphlets and some manuscript material, this microfilm collection includes 104 feminist or women's periodicals, mostly from the 19th and early 20th centuries. While the majority are English language publications from the United States or Great Britain, some foreign language titles are also included. Some of the periodicals in this collection are separately listed in the historical sections below. For a complete listing see: History of Women. Guide to the Microfilm Collection, Z7961.W5 - in REF and Microtext Room. Titles are not listed in Socrates except in those instances where we have acquired the periodical separately.

Herstory

MFILM N.S. 927. Herstory was filmed from Laura X's Women's Herstory Library in Berkeley and includes a great number of serial publications from the modern Women's Liberation Movement. Thus most titles are from the late 1960s and early 1970s, although a complete run of The Ladder, which began in 1956, is also included. Individual titles in this collection will not be found in Socrates, except in those instances where we acquired a periodical separately. A complete listing of titles is given in Guide to the Microfilm Edition of Herstory (Z7962.W67 and W672 - REF and Microtext Room), though it is sometimes easier to use Danky's Women's Periodicals and Newspapers, cited above.

The Social & Political Status of Women: Rare Political, Performing and Professional Journals for and by Women.

MFILM N.S. 3644 and Hoover mfilm HQ1597.S63 (part 1 only) Included are 60 titles published in Great Britain between 1855 and 1935. The titles in Part 1 of the collection are listed in Socrates (for the Hoover copy only), but the titles in Part 2 are not listed in Socrates.

American Periodical Series (APS).

MFILM 051/4 AND 051/5. Included here are a number of periodicals of the 18th century and the first half of the 19th century. Most of these are not women's periodicals, let alone feminist journals. Included are such things as Godey's Lady's Book (Godey's Magazine); Lady's Miscellany; The Lady's Magazine, Ladies' Garland; American Ladies' Magazine, etc. For a complete listing see the subject index under the rubric Woman or Women's Periodicals, in American Periodicals 1741-1900: An Index to the Microform Collections...(Z6951.H65 - REF & Microtext Room). All of these titles should be listed in Socrates, but one should note that Stanford does not hold Part III of this collection, for periodicals which began publication after the year 1850.

English Literary Periodicals (ELP).

MFILM 052.14. Includes 341 titles published in Great Britain in the 17th, 18th and 19th centuries, all of which should be listed in Socrates. Although many women wrote for a number of these magazines they are hardly feminist journals, nor even what most would consider as traditional women's magazines. Included are such things as The Female Tatler; Records of Love, or Weekly Amusements for the Fair Sex; The Tea Table; The Ladies' Magazine, or Universal Entertainer; The Lady's Monthly Museum; The New British Lady's Magazine, etc. A complete listing of titles is given in: Accessing English Literary Periodicals (Z692.S5U56 - REF & Microtext Room)

Women Advising Women.

MFILM N.S. 13035. An in progress microfilm collection of mainly eighteenth century women's journals, advice books, manuals, and almanacs. As with the English Literary Periodicalscollection, while many women wrote for a number of these magazines, they are, in most cases, hardly feminist journals. Part 1 of the collection Early Women's Journals, c1700-1832, from the Bodleian Library contains forty major titles covering the period 1577-1832. Part 2 focuses on prescriptive literature and conduct books, but also includes periodicals such as The Ladies Diary or Woman's Almanac, 1706-1840 and the Ladies' Poetical Magazine, 1780- 1783. Parts 3 and 4 contain runs of The Lady's Magazine, 1770-1832. A complete listing of titles can be found in the guides found in the Microtext Room PN5124.W6 W66. None of the titles from this collection is listed in Socrates except in those cases where they have been acquired separately or are part another microfilm set whose contents are in Socrates.

San Francisco Bay Area Gay and Lesbian Serials.

MFILM N.S. 12536. Includes 58 titles published in the Bay Area from mid-1950s through 1989. None of these titles are listed in Socrates except in those instances where they may have been acquired separately.
