Note: some of you already now about that, but many people do not seem to be
      aware of the following service:

-----------------------------------------------------------------------
-----------------------------------------------------------------------

All the table of contents of journals which have been posted on the
BIO-JOURNALS bulletin board  of the BIOSCI conferencing system  are
available  by  anonymous FTP in the format used in the EMBL, SWISS-
PROT, and SEQANALREF databases.

Example of the format:

RA   Chang C.-H., Winans S.C.;
RT   "Functional Roles Assigned to the Periplasmic, Linker, and Receiver
RT   Domains of the Agrobacterium tumefaciens VirA Protein.";
RL   J. Bacteriol. 174:7033-7039(1992).

There is a file for each different journal for each year. Currently the
following files are available:

You can get those files (updates are done on a regular monthly basis) from
the following FTP sites:

    Organism : National Center for Biotechnology Information (NCBI)
    Address  : ncbi.nlm.nih.gov (or 130.14.20.1)
    Directory: /repository/journals_toc

    Organism : Basel Biozentrum Biocomputing server (EMBnet SWISS node)
    Address  : bioftp.unibas.ch (or 131.152.8.1)
    Directory: /archive_data/database/references/journals_toc

    Organism : ExPASy (Geneva University Expert Protein Analysis System)
    Address  : expasy.hcuge.ch  (or 129.195.254.61)
    Directory: /databases/journals_toc


!!! Various notes and warnings !!! 

1) In each files the references are sorted by valume and page number. 
   This is not the case of the original post for some journals which
   break down their table of contents into subsections specific to a
   given field of research (example: J. Bacteriol., AEM, MCB, etc.).

2) For some journals there are some missing references, because some
   of the table of contents were never posted. This is especially true
   of NAR and EMBO J.

3) These files should be free of obvious syntax errors, but no major
   effort has been done to correct the many errors which can be found
   in the original posting of these table of contents (mainly concerning
   the title of the papers).
