FEMINIST PERIODICALS: A CURRENT LISTING OF CONTENTS (4/yr, online only; subscribers will receive notification of each issue) reproduces tables of contents of over 150 women's studies journals and magazines, and includes publishing/subscription information on each periodical.

NEW BOOKS ON WOMEN, GENDER & FEMINISM (2/yr) is a subject-arranged bibliography with additional subject and author indexes to new books in English from academic, trade, small press, and feminist sources around the world. (formerly New Books on Women & Feminism)
