Abstract
The results of a survey and weighted summary of all major suggested journal subscription lists for hospital libraries are described. A total of ninety-one titles taken from 255 titles examined is listed under thirty-three subject headings. Contrasts are made of the titles and subject headings employed by others, and the potential of Stearns' “core collection” concept for small medical libraries is dealt with in detail.
