About this list

The list is a first rough pass of that will hopefully be useful for students interested in exploring economic development and the many domains it cuts across. It undoubtedly suffers from some glaring omissions which we will happily correct upon request. If you “borrow” or otherwise use this list please credit the Center for Economic Development at the Heinz College at Carnegie Mellon University. Use caution. The list was casually selected, and no attempt was made to establish the pedigree of each journal or periodical. While several are long established and well respected, others are new and untested (of course students at the Heinz College soon learn how to separate the wheat from the chaff).

 

The following symbols refer to the availability of each item for students currently enrolled here at Carnegie Mellon University as of January 2010.

 

@ - available electronically through CMU, or open access.

h - available in hardcopy through CMU

# - not available, or limited availability, use ILLIAD

/ - only older issues appear to be available via hard or electronic copy.

 

Note that “@” does not ensure access to of all issues. Some journals provide only access to recent volumes, others the reverse.

 

Current students at Carnegie Mellon may need to access these journals through the CAMEO or WorldCat library catalogs, both of which can be found here as of Jan 2010. Another good way to access these journals is the libraries e-journal list, which can be found here. The e-journal list is particularly important as it covers many items which may not be found or accessible via CAMEO or WorldCat. You can also use the e-journal list to find additional related material by using key search terms. As a last resort, you may want to attempt to search for journal title directly via a search engine, you may find you still have access to some or all of the journals content directly or through a publishing intermediary. In some cases, none of these steps will work and you may need to make an inter library loan request to obtain articles (ILLIAD can be found here). If you are having difficulty with any of these steps please contact the University library for assistance.
