Something to remember with MLA is that chapters of monographs are also indexed. Which causes us further problems with linking between MLA and Discovery.

There is a list of indexed journals here: https://www.mla.org/Publications/MLA-International-Bibliography/Frequently-Asked-Questions, under "How many journals are covered in the bibliography?"

If you can actually get a "clean" list of what's indexed in MLA, e.g. with reliable ISSNs and starting/ending coverage dates, I would very much like to have a copy. Years ago I wanted to do what you're asking for, but was stymied by the lack of a usable title list for MLA, and the journal titles themselves are far too variable in formatting/abbreviation/subtitles/etc to be usable for doing systematic overlap comparisons.

Hello collective wisdom!

Before I go reinventing the wheel, I'm curious if anyone has run a comparison of the titles indexed in MLA International Bibliography with any other resources (JSTOR, other EBSCOhost databases, etc.). If so, would you be willing to share?

Thanks!
Josh
