English abstract
Mexican journals are usually ignored at local and foreign universities despite the fact that they convey the most updated academic and scientific information generated by national researchers and writers. Libraries and readers have difficulty in accessing Mexican journals, because local serials are normally out of the mainstream of journal indexing and full-text databases from the industrialized world. The barriers for local journals are many, among them the language, limited marketing, and the less relevant universal article content. Mexican serial titles, their contents and their potential readers will be the subject of this presentation that aims to provide guidance on how to acquire the best journals, and overcome the lack of international indexing services’ coverage.
