Bruce This article provides an overview of the 70 popular magazines, trade periodicals and newspapers read in an Illinois farm home during the first half of the 20th century. The focus is on 18 farm journals used in the family's day-to-day activities. Each farming title is summarized for content, style, and utility with bibliographic information and selected sources. Page 1 Health-Related Newsletters Frederic M. Messick The field of health-related newsletters is expanding. Those discussed in this article are produced by nonprofit organizations and reach a sizable audience of well educated lay readers, especially elderly women. They offer both succinct summaries of the latest medical and health care news with information taken mostly from major professional journals and longer articles providing a current consensus of the experts on particular topics. Health-related newsletters fill a gap between mass circulation magazines and scholarly periodicals and provide the public with reliable health information on a timely basis. Page 23 Electronic Data Interchange: Dartmouth + Faxon + Innopac + SISAC + X12 = Serials Claims Pilot Project Joan Griffith This paper describes a pilot serials claims project which incorporates new technology into an existing integrated library system. Dartmouth College Library, Innovative Interfaces, Inc. and the Faxon Company collaborated to develop electronic serial claiming that changed the claim process of our integrated library system from paper to an electronic format, thereby improving systems capabilities and revolutionizing the way business is done between libraries, subscription agents, and eventually, publishers. Page 33 Index Medicus Price Study: Publishing Trends from 1991-1995 Lynn M. Fortney and Victor A. Basile This fifth edition of the Index Medicus Price Study examines biomedical journal publishing trends over a five-year period (1991-1995) and analyzes these trends by subject category and country of publication. Its purpose is to provide librarians with information about inflationary trends within specific disciplines and enable them to educate their constituents about the financial requirements necessary to support the various medical specialties. Page 47 Electronic Journal Forum: Project Muse: A Partnership of Interest Donnice Cochenour Past columns have focused on the electronic journal defined as one available only in electronic format and usually distributed without charge over the Internet, as opposed to the commercially produced online journal, which maintains an electronic existence parallel to a print counterpart. This column will describe a hybrid of these two. Todd D. Kelley, Librarian for Information Technology Initiatives at Milton S. Eisenhower Library, Johns Hopkins University, discusses the goals, challenges and future plans of Project Muse, a collaborative effort between a university press, a university library and a university computer center. Page 75 The Balance Point: Exchange Rates and the Serials Marketplace Edited by Ellen Duranceau, with contributions by Knut Dorn, John Cox, Harry Hoffer, Allen Powell, and James Mouw In this column, five writers who represent various segments of the serials information chain shed light on the at times vexingly complex topic of exchange rates and their role in the serials marketplace.

Page 99 Serials Spoken Here: Reports of Conferences, Institutes and Seminars Susan Davis, with contributions by Roger L. Presley, Alison S. Roth, William Fietzer, and Jean S. Decker This column features reports from four recent events: The ACRL Journals Costs in Academic Libraries Discussion Group session at ALA Midwinter, the Technical Services Workstations Institute in Atlanta, ACRL's Seventh Annual Conference in Pittsburgh, and the Serials Cataloging Institute in Atlanta.
