Check out gnujake at   http://jake.med.yale.edu   The concept looks like a 
winner to me.

As to "extracting", I'm assuming so that you can have a "journals list" or 
something similar to merge into your catalog or your own "journals list" 
(in whatever format)?   Each of the providers I know of does have a list of 
journals in full text on their service.  We provide links to those lists as 
a convenience to our patrons.  For example, see
