Martin,
Few HERs have the resources to have the complete gamut of national journals and about as many of those you run HERs would have the time to examine them all. However, in most instances where an excavation or artefact or a survey is significant enough to make a national journal the HER would probably be aware of it though some other channel. The problem this might lead to might be y that the HER might fail to give the national journal as a source.

A query came up as to whether HERs regularly trawl through national
journals (e.g. Journal of Roman Studies, Vernacular Architecture,
Industrial Archaeology Review etc) for sites and research relevant to
their geographical area. I was wondering whether list members had a view
on the usefulness and priority level this type of type of research.

Martin
