Looking for information on current Russian serials?


Serial publications can be difficult to track if you don't have a large library nearby. One site that can help is Media Guide. While this is not a comprehensive list, there is information on over 2600 titles. What is available here is a bit unpredictable. For example, there is an extensive entry on Uchitel'skaia Gazeta but nothing for Knizhnoe Obozrenie. The entries include statistical data on web usage, publication history, tirazh, contact information and much more. Much of the information here is meant for advertisers but certainly has other applications.
The search interface allows you to search by a variety of features including type of publication, cost, periodicity, place of publication, title, etc.
Entries supply links to the main page for the publication and contact information for the editors.
