If you are interested in MARC records for periodicals available via the Gale databases, read on.

I asked for clarification around the use of the word “transition” in the announcement, and a Gale rep said that the MARC records from Serials Solutions are available now.

Can’t see the graphic below? I pasted in the message text at the very bottom of this email.

Thanks,
Jen
