The hidden literature: the scientific journals of industry
A study of 266 little‐known technical house journals in the US, UK and France is described. Methods of journal selection, location, and bibliographic control are discussed. A sample of technical articles from the journals was searched in abstracting and indexing services to determine their coverage and the extent to which such materials are prepublished or republished in standard periodicals. It was found that, although there are a significant number of technical articles published in house journals, the coverage of this literature in secondary sources is very low, and the literature is rarely included in standard periodicals.
