<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family:"Arial",sans-serif">Thanks, but this is a very poor list, just title and one ISSN (presumably print). No years of coverage, no indicator of which titles are core/full versus selectively indexed. It's better than
nothing, but not really good for doing proper overlap comparison. This is at least an improvement compared to the last time I looked, when there were no issns, and just a pdf list of titles.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

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.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
