There are a number of ways to track down instructions for submitting articles to the various medical and biomedical journals. Below are a number of links to sites that collect author instructions in descending order of comprehensiveness (at the time of this writing, anyway). If your journal is not listed at any of these sites but it is part of the holdings at the Ruth Lilly Medical Library you can either call the Reference Department at 274-7185 or email us at medlref@iupui.edu (the preferred method if you don't need the instructions yesterday). Otherwise you may be able to get a copy of the instructions via the Interlibrary Loan department - they can be reached at 274-7184.
