Beginning in 1983 (Auk 100, Ibis 125) the AOU and BOU combined their Recent Literature sections, to publish a single supplement of ornithological literature to which members of both unions contribute. The RAOU joined this partnership in 1987 (Emu 87). The AOU covers journals published in the Americas and The Philippines. The BOU covers journals published in Europe, Africa, and mainland Asia. The RAOU covers journals published in Australasia and other island nations of the Pacific. More than 150 volunteers scan about 650 titles and contribute abstracts regularly. Authors' addresses are included, if the journal lists them, to facilitate communication between readers and authors. Recent Ornithological Literature strives for comprehensive coverage of the world's periodical literature of interest to persons studying wild birds. Readers are encouraged to consult the “List of Journals Scanned” published annually in the October supplement and to make recommendations for increasing journal coverage.
