Indexing & Abstracting
JMRC is committed to making its articles easy to discover, cite and preserve. This page reports the journal's indexing status accurately and is updated whenever that status changes.
JMRC is a new journal and is not yet indexed in DOAJ, Scopus or Web of Science. The journal will apply to these databases once it meets their eligibility requirements, which include a record of regular publication. JMRC will never claim coverage by a database that has not accepted it.
Current status
| Service | Status | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| Google Scholar | Metadata ready | Every article page carries the citation metadata used by Google Scholar; articles become discoverable once they are published and crawled. |
| OAI-PMH harvesting | Active | Article metadata is openly available to indexing services and repositories through the journal's OAI-PMH endpoint. |
| ISSN | Planned | An online ISSN will be requested from the ISSN National Centre after the first issue is published, and shown on every page once assigned. |
| Crossref DOIs | Planned | Digital Object Identifiers will be registered for all articles through Crossref. |
| PKP Preservation Network | Planned | Deposit of published content for long-term preservation once an ISSN has been assigned; see Archiving & Preservation. |
| Directory of Open Access Journals (DOAJ) | Planned | Application once the journal meets DOAJ's criteria for publishing history and content. |
| Scopus | Planned | Suggestion for review once the journal has an ISSN and an established record of regular, on-time publication. |
| Web of Science Core Collection (ESCI) | Planned | Submission for evaluation once the journal meets Clarivate's initial triage criteria. |
How we meet indexing standards
The journal's policies and workflows follow the published selection criteria of DOAJ, Scopus and Web of Science:
- Clear, publicly available policies on peer review, publication ethics, open access, copyright and licensing and fees.
- An identifiable editorial board, listed with full names, affiliations and countries.
- A stated publishing schedule that is followed consistently.
- English titles, abstracts and keywords, and references in Roman script, for every article.
- Complete, machine-readable article metadata, including author affiliations, funding and licence information.
- Long-term preservation of all published content.
For librarians and indexers
Metadata for all published articles can be harvested from the OAI-PMH endpoint linked in the footer of every page. For any other information needed to index the journal, please contact the editorial office at editor@jmrconline.com.
