Printer's Devil and reprint requests

Wilson I. B. Onuigbo

Journal of the American Society for Information Science, 1982, vol. 33, issue 1, 58-59

Abstract: Printing errors may creep into reprint requests. This affected my papers on Joseph Coats in the Scottish Medical Journal and on childhood cancer in the Medical Journal of Australia. Thus, their titles, as listed in Current Contents, were afflicted by the printer's devil and thereby contained respectively one insertion and one deletion error. Analysis of the faulty requests revealed that as high as 85% displayed each error printed in Current Contents. Furthermore, fully 53% of all requests were from the United States. Both trends are of interest in the field of information science.
