Review articles provide an overview of a given topic, highlighting the major works and providing many key references. These articles range from very broad coverage to highly specialized areas of research. Review articles may appear in many different types of journals, often interspersed with primary research articles. Review journals, a special type of journal, restrict their content to review articles. Examples of just a few of the review journals in the Boston College Libraries include:

• Annual Review of Biochemistry
• Current Opinion in Chemical Biology
  
• Nature Reviews: Genetics
  
• Trends in Immunology
  
• ... and many others (most of the titles listed above provide just one example from a given publisher)
