The Advisory Committee on the Indexing of Periodical Literature reviews newly published legal periodicals and makes recommendations to The Gale Group (TGG) editorial staff concerning inclusion of those titles in the Legal Resources Index/Current Law Index. Where the scope of periodical titles presently indexed does not adequately reflect the needs of the AALL membership, the Advisory Committee makes recommendations to the TGG editorial staff concerning the adjustment of that scope. The Advisory Committee is also charged with monitoring the guidelines used in determining which periodical titles are included in the indexing, and with making recommendations concerning various publishing details to the TGG editorial staff that may reflect the concerns of the AALL membership. (Amended July, 1999 Board Meeting - Tab 30, page 2750) Size: The size of this committee has not been specified in the Committee Handbook. By practice this committee generally has five (5) members and a chair.
