"All that JAS" gets new home

For those of you familiar with "All that JAS: Journals Abbreviations Sources," this valuable resource has become part of Abbreviations.com.

All that JAS was developed by a librarian, Gerry McKiernan, at Iowa State University. He ran the site for 7 years. Divided in numerous categories, such as AQUATIC SCIENCES, MEDICINE, and FOOD SCIENCE, All that JAS provides access to journal abbreviation lists for those writing references and those attempting to interpret them. Also included are resources that provide full titles of periodicals as well as conference proceedings.

Abbreviations.com was started by a software engineer, and includes abbreviations, acronyms, and initialisms in dozens of categories. For All that JAS, the move means a dedicated team will be able to maintain the integrity of the resource list.

To directly access All that JAS at its new location, book mark following URL: http://www.abbreviations.com/jas.asp
