INDEXES AND
ABSTRACTING SERVICES
Current Index to Statistics
The Current Index to Statistics is a bibliographic index to
publications in statistics and related fields. References are drawn from
111 core journals that are fully indexed, non-core journals from which
articles are selected that have statistical content, proceedings and
edited books, and other sources. The CIS Extended Database (CIS-ED)
indexes the entire contents of 111 "core journals", in most cases from
1975 (or first issue if later) to the current end year, and pre-1975
coverage for a number of them; selected articles since 1975 from about
1200 additional journals (cumulatively); and about 11,000 books in
statistics published since 1975. The Current Index to Statistics is a
joint venture of the American Statistical Association and the Institute of
Mathematical Statistics. More information can be found at
http://www.statindex.org/CIS.
