如何建设一个能满足当前用户需求的外文期刊馆藏是医学图书馆面临的一个永恒的课题。这个问题在慈惠大学医学部医学教育研究信息中心图书馆服务部（医学图书馆）也存在。新订外文期刊的需求量很大，但由于医学图书馆预算有限，不可能满足所有这些需求。与此相反，似乎有一些期刊标题，目前在这所学校的教育和研究活动方面没有用处，尽管他们在过去得到了充分的评价。为了在医学图书馆建立一个更有用和更有效的期刊馆藏，在1987年和1988年，进行了两次大规模的调查，以重新评估目前订阅外国期刊的有用性，寻找尚未订阅的更有价值的期刊，并将重新评估确定的非活跃期刊标题替换为各种来源认可的更有用的标题，包括图书馆用户的需求。依据图书馆统计资料、研究者意见、影响因子、价格等资料，取消现有外文期刊60种，新增期刊43种。
The development of a foreign journal collection that fully meets the current needs of users is an everlasting problem for medical libraries. This problem is also seen in the Library Services Division (medical library), Medical Information Center for Education and Research, The Jikei University School of Medicine. There are is great demand for new subscriptions to foreign journals, but it is impossible to fulfill all such requests because of the limited budget of the medical library. In contrast, there seem to be jourual titles which are not currently useful in terms of the educational and research activates of this school, although they were fully evaluated in the past. To develop a more useful and effective journal collection in the medical library, in 1987 and 1988, two large surveys were conducted to re-evaluate the usefulness of current subscriptions to foreign journals, to find more valuable journals which have not been subscribed to yet, and to replace non-active journal titles identified by the reevaluation with more useful titles recognized by various sources, including the demand from library users. The sources used were library statistics, researchers' opinions, impact factors, prices, and so on. As a result, 60 current foreign journals were cancelled and 43 new journals were added to the medical library.
