Latin American journals

In GALILEO is CLASE and PERIÓDICA which is an index (this is the key word- index - this database tells you who has the articles but does not provide the articles) of Latin American journals in the sciences and humanities compiled by the Universidad Nacional Autónoma de México. This resource combines two databases:

CLASE (Citas Latinoamericanas en Ciencias Sociales y Humanidades) includes more than 198,000 references in the humanities and social sciences, selected from more than 1,200 journals and other materials published in Latin American and Caribbean countries. The database covers topics such as accounting, anthropology, the arts, business administration, library and information science, communications, demographics, economics, education, sociology, law, political science, linguistics, management, history, philosophy, and literature.

PERIÓDICA (Índice de Revistas Latinoamericanas en Ciencias) includes more than 204,000 citations to articles and other documents from over 1,400 Latin American and Caribbean scientific and technological journals. Among the subjects covered are agricultural sciences, biology, physics, geosciences, engineering, medicine, and chemistry.

"On June 14, 1777, the Continental Congress approved the design of a national flag.

Since 1916, when President Woodrow Wilson issued a presidential proclamation declaring June 14 Flag Day, Americans have commemorated the adoption of the Stars and Stripes by celebrating June 14 as Flag Day. "
