Announcement
Inauguration of electronic-only publication with July 2004 issue
The Annals of Thoracic Surgery announces the inauguration of electronic-only (e-only) publication of selected case reports, how to do it articles and image papers with the July 2004 issue of the online edition. These e-only papers are listed in the Table of Contents of both the print and electronic editions of The Annals. The e-only papers will be designated by a special symbol (lower case "e" with a click arrow) and will be numbered separately and consecutively per volume with an "e" preceding the page number of the electronic edition. Electronic-only articles will also be indexed in the December and June issues and therefore are fully citable.
The address of the electronic edition of The Annals is http://ats.ctsnetjournals.org. If you are an STS or STSA member or a non-member personal subscriber to the print issue of The Annals, you automatically have a subscription to the online Annals, which entitles you to access the full-text of all articles. To gain full-text access, you will need your CTSNet user name and password.
Society members and non-members alike who do not know their CTSNet user name and password should follow the link "Forgot your user name or password?" that appears below the boxes where you are asked to enter this information when you try to gain full-text access. Your user name and password will be e-mailed to the e-mail address you designate.
In lieu of the above procedure, if you have forgotten your CTSNet username and/or password, you can always send an email to CTSNet via the feedback button from the left navigation menu on the homepage of the online Annals or go directly to http://ats.ctsnetjournals.org/cgi/feedback.
We hope that you will view the online Annals and take advantage of the many features available to our subscribers as part of the CTSNet Journals Online. These include inter-journal linking from within the reference sections of Annals' articles to over 350 journals available through the HighWire Press collection (HighWire provides the platform for the delivery of the online Annals). There is also cross-journal advanced searching, eTOC Alerts, Subject Alerts, Cite-Track, and much more. A listing of these features can be found at http://ats.ctsnetjournals.org/help/features.dtl.
