以前许多大型检索工具如EI、CA、SA、MR等，都有刊名缩写与全称的对照表，如CA有CASSI（化学文摘资料来源索引）。现在这些检索工具不再出版印刷本，所以就见不到刊名缩写与全称的对照表了。但在与这些检索工具相对应的检索数据库中都有刊名的缩写。英文期刊名称的缩写有一定的规律，一般从英文单词的第二个章节的辅音字母后截掉。如果这样缩写会引起歧义，则向后延伸一个章节，即从第三个章节的辅音字母后截掉。有些单词在期刊名称中出现频繁，则可以截的更短一些。如“Journal”被缩写为一个字母“J”，“American”被缩写成两个字母“Am”。例如：美国化学学会会志“Journal of the American Chemical Society ”的缩写为“J A C S”。需要注意的是：刊名中的虚词（如介词、冠词等）直接被缩掉。
