Together, these publications constitute the major English- language service providing comprehensive worldwide coverage of research in the biological and biomedical sciences. Biological Abstracts includes approximately 350,000 accounts of original research yearly from nearly 5,000 primary journal and monograph titles. Biological Abstracts/RRM includes an additional 200,000+ citations a year from meeting abstracts, reviews, books, book chapters, notes, letters, and selected reports.

U.S. patents are included in some archive records (1926-1968), from 1986-1989, and from 1994 to the present. Abstracts are available in archive records and from 1976 forward. Archive data is the digitized content of the print Biological Abstracts, volumes 1-49.
