Errata Control in Biomedical Journals

AUTOR(ES)

Loepprich, Joyce Clinger

RESUMO

Errata notices published in medical journals are investigated by (1) a six-month study of those currently received by a medium-sized medical library; (2) a survey on the way medical libraries handle them, and (3) interviews with researchers to determine their ideas about errata. Since there is a wide variation at present in errata control practices, the question is raised about the extent of a library's responsibility with regard to errata.
