Journal Selection
Inclusion into the Index is not automatic and depends on a journal's scientific policy and scientific quality. These criteria are evaluated by the "Literature Selection Technical Review Committee" and the final decision is made by the NLM director. The review process may include outside reviewers and journals may be dropped from inclusion.

—Frances Burney (1752–1840)
“When you consider the radiance, that it does not withhold
itself but pours its abundance without selection into every
nook and cranny”
