[Analysis of European pharmaceutical journal diffusion: the example of the principal French document supplier].
Our purpose was to analyse the process of providing papers, edited by european pharmaceutical journals, by the main French document supplier, "Institut National de l'Information Scientifique et Technique" linked to the "Centre National de la Recherche Scientifique" (INIST-CNRS). After having given a definition and built up a corpus of 289 journals, orders about them during 1996-1998 were analysed. Then, the possible relationships between orders to INIST-CNRS and impact of journals on scientific community (from Institute for Scientific Information (ISI) data) were examined. Finally, relationships between document orders to INIST-CNRS and, on the one hand european pharmaceutical journals indexation in bibliographic databases and, on the other hand their possible indexation in the French National Collective Catalogue were studied.
