Brandon–Hill list explained

The Brandon–Hill list is a list of journals and books recommended for a small hospital library.

Compiled by Alfred Brandon and Dorothy Hill,[1] the 2003 version included 434 books and subscriptions to 79 journals,[2] but is no longer updated and has been replaced by Doody's Core Titles.[3]

It has been used to calculate the rate of rise of journal costs.[4]
