Louise and Leslie are correct. Most of the Health Science titles are are not
in Science Direct but only on the EHS site.

Hi,
Louise is raising a very valid issue here, one which can be a source of
frustration for all of us trying to find the stable form of the URL for
our records, especially when the links we see have dynamic information
that is not part of the stable link.
There is no information that I can find on the EHS Periodicals site
about linking to their journals, not all of which are accessible on the
ScienceDirect site.
Whilst many sites do provides details of how ones provides direct links
to journal titles, on other sites there is absolutely no information
about linking e.g. ACM Digital Library, or if there is information it is
buried deep in the web site. Good examples of the linking information
being totally visible include ScienceDirect, IoP Electronic Journals and
Taylor and Francis MetaPress where the information is detailed on the
journal home page or via a link from the journal homepage.
Having this information prominently displayed would make our lives much
easier. Sites which don't presently provide such advice on linking would
be well advised to consider adding this information to their site.
Cheers
Lesley

Subject: Mosby titles and related
Dear all
Has anyone managed to figure out direct URLs to the titles listed at
http://www2.us.elsevierhealth.com/scripts/om.dll/serve?action=home which
include Mosby, Churchill Livingstone, Saunders, and others. Some we
have guessed at, and some have short and manageable URLs, but others
don't (for example Journal of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery.
Anyone found a way round this who would be willing to share?
Thanks
Louise
