To put PsycINFO into perspective, suffice it to say that it has about 2-million records (75% of which are journal articles), a very good mix of source documents and covers about 1,900 journals (including all of the most prestigious ones in mental health, psychology and psychiatry).
It is also the sign of hasty implementation that PsycINFO did not heed theadvice of the APA Publishing Manual about the importance of minding the syntax of URLs, let alone the one about checking their validity.
PsycINFO is far from perfect and its errors of commission and omission are due to sloppiness and harried implementation.
