"JMR Abstracts will enable current Journal subscribers to obtain early information on upcoming topics which are most important to them," said Brown. "Newcomers, who may be unfamiliar with the Journal, will find that JMR Abstracts provides an excellent entrée to current developments in the materials research field." "JMR Abstracts is not itself a journal," he emphasized, "but it is much more than a table of contents to JMR. Scientists and librarians will hâve the opportunity to examine the topics and scan the abstracts from upcoming articles several weeks before they are actually published. They can then flag articles to be sure they don't miss them when they receive their copies of JMR, or, if they don't receive a subscription to JMR, they can place an advance order for a single copy or article reprint.
