[ILL-L] Epub ahead of print

[Tim Prather]

Hi,

 

I teach some resource sharing classes for Amigos Library Services.  The
following question came up in a recent session and I don't know the
answer:

 

The ILL person got a citation that read

 

Age and ageing

2008 Nov 13; [Epub ahead of print]

Poor vision accompanied with other sensory impairment

Kulmala J;Viljanen A;Sipila S;Pajala S;Parssinen O;Kauppin

 

The ILL person was wondering about the "epub ahead of print" notation.
What does that mean?  Is it simply saying it will be published in an
electronic version of the journal  before appearing in a print version?
How would the user get hold of a cite for something that hasn't been
published yet.

 

Seems simple but cryptic at the same time!

 

Thanks,

Tim
