Annals of Surgery was not on their list either, but the Medical College of Ohio Library has a wonderful site. It contains tons of links to Instructions to Authors, and often this can also get you to the home page of the journal and publisher. Someone had posted this address on this list several years ago and it's one of the most useful things ever. Finding author instructions used to always be a pain, but now...hooray for the Ohio crowd!! http://www.mco.edu/lib/instr/libinsta.html -- Kathleen Puglia Reference Librarian Tulane Medical Library 1430 Tulane Ave SL86 New Orleans LA 70112-2699 (504) 588-5155 [log in to unmask]
