# Journal Abbreviation Lookup Look up journal/magazine name abbreviations using a multi-source cascade: JabRef database (~25K journals) → AbbrevISO API (ISO 4) → NLM Catalog (MEDLINE). **Critical rule:** Always use `jabbrv.py` for lookups. Never guess abbreviations — even common journals have non-obvious abbreviations. ## Quick Reference | User wants... | Tier | Command | |---------------|------|---------| | Abbreviate a journal name | read | `python3 jabbrv.py abbrev "Nature Medicine"` | | Expand an abbreviation | read | `python3 jabbrv.py expand "Nat.
