Parameters for Inclusion

Even if we do not claim that we include a journal of an institution based on the quality of the papers, we lay down some principles for inclusion. They include the parameters:

  • ISSN availability
  • Editorial Board (such as authenticity, eminence, affiliation details etc.)
  • Authorship Information
  • Abstracts and References
  • English language abstract for Non-English articles
  • Timely publication of issues
  • Explicit information about scope, themes, frequency
  • Error-free article content
  • Journals should reveal their archiving policy, including whether authors can host their papers in an open repository and who holds the copyright. 

Publications other than research journals will not be included for indexing.
