Standard Content Reports
**Last update 02/04/2010**
LexisNexis® Academic contains over 12,000 news, business, legal, and other sources. The standard reports available on this page are provided to support subscribing libraries and third-party vendors who need to analyze, catalog, or work with the individual sources. Reports are updated monthly. Detailed information for individual sources can be accessed by users of LexisNexis Academic from within the service by clicking on the "i" icon that appears next to all source in the source directory and on search forms
Use the 2010 version to link to the LexisNexis Academic interface released January 2010. Use the 2007 version to link to the previous interface. Links to the old (2007) interface will be automatically redirected to the new interfaces in summer 2010.
For details on the new interface see, the Migration Guide article on the LexisNexis Academic wiki.

Notes
1A-Z List
The A-Z List contains the unique titles included in LexisNexis Academic. See the notes tab in the Excel sheet for explanation of the fields used in the report. See the URL API Documentation on this website for technical details on how the linking URLs were constructed. The A-Z List is an enhanced title list in MS Excel format that includes:
- LexisNexis Constant Source Identifier (CSI)
- Month added to LexisNexis Academic
- ISSNs
- Source classifications
- URL to search directly within each title in LexisNexis Academic
- URL to view description in the LexisNexis source guide for each title
- Article Link CSI needed for article-level linking using the URL API
2Regional Differences
Please note that while the vast majority of titles in LexisNexis Academic are available to all subscribers, publishers may have regional exclusions that create some difference in content. It is generally safe to assume that content listed in the standard reports (based on the United States content package) will be available to subscribers in other world regions. A separate report is provided here for Canada because of exlusions affecting a dozen or so important newspapers.
3CSI Changes
This is not a Standard Report, and is included on this page only for convenience. Normally, the Constant Source Identifier (CSI) for a title does not change. However, in 2008 enhanced versions were created for several dozen law reviews and journals from the UK, Canada, Australia, and other Commonwealth nations. Not all LexisNexis applications can use the enhanced versions, so they could not simply be given the existing CSI numbers. LexisNexis Academic does use the enhanced versions of these law reviews and journals. In the LexisNexis A-Z List the CSI assigned to these titles has been changed accordingly. The most dramatic benefit of using the enhanced versions is the new volume/issue browse feature. The CSI Changes report maps the old CSIs to the new CSIs to help you update your records. These changes are not shown in the Add/Drop report because there was no change in coverage.
