The Boston Computer Society (617-367-8080) has a monthly magazine called 
BCS Update. In the Jan 91 issue, they had a survey article on CD ROM's. 

Some contact numbers from the article :

Bureau of Electronic Publishing, NJ. 800-828-4766 or 201-808-2700
	Call for a free catalog of CD ROM titles

Information Today is a monthly newspaper on online and CD ROM databases. 
	Published by Learned Information Inc, 609-654-4888

CD ROM Professional (Pemberton Press, 800-248-8466) is a bimonthly 
	magazine , CD ROM and publishing equipment. 

Helgerson Associates Inc, 800-688-3374
	Publishes  : Disc Magazine, CD ROM Shoppers Guide
	I called them up, and they are friendly and helpful, but don't send
	sample copies. Disc Magazine is monthly, year's sub is $34.95, 
	and includes a free CD ROM every month (articles, programs, etc)
	Addressed to developers of CD ROM and multimedia. 
	CD ROM Shoppers Guide is quarterly, year's sub is $19.95, has 
	listings of titles and hardware

	Same company that makes microfilms of old theses, and out of print 
	books. They don't have an overall catalog, but offered to send 
	a free catalog of all the (60+) subject catalogs. 


I subscribed to Disc Mag; I'll post an update when I get it, especially
whether their CD ROM contains anything useful. One CD ROM every month
sounds like information paradise :-)
