How we got it #

This data was downloaded from the mirror of the journal hosted at the Florida Virtual Campus.

Processing #

  • Plain Text:
    • “Old Series” (articles with volume and issue number, 1985–2006): OCR was re-run from each PDF file
    • “New Series” (articles with article number only, 2007-): text extracted from PDF files, initial two “title page” pages removed from each article
  • Metadata: These articles are not registered with CrossRef and have no DOIs; minimal metadata was extracted from the FLVC pages for each article.
