An updated version of this post is now available, with new lists and information to verify what is indexed in Scopus. If a journal does not meet any of the six benchmarks, Scopus will inform the journal of its quality performance and will allow the journal one year to improve at least one metric. When in doubt, send an email to the Scopus Helpdesk and one of our Customer Service representatives can let you know if that title is indexed (or is going to be indexed). Other features that the algorithm considers are self-citation rate and publication concerns, amongst others.

For publishing proposals, including transfer of existing journals, launch of new titles or conversion of subscription journals to Open Access, please complete this form.. In recent years, Scopus has added over 195 million more cited references, dating back to 1970, to complement the database's existing records that date back to 1788 and further increase the depth of content. Content types included on Scopus are either serial publications that have an ISSN (International Standard Serial Number) such as journals, book series and some conference series, or non-serial publications that have an ISBN (International Standard Book Number) like one-off book publications or one-off conferences. Conference paper selection is done based on the relevancy and quality of the conference in relation to the subject field.

Usually an ISSN is available. Scopus covers nearly 36,377 titles (22,794 active titles and 13,583 inactive titles) from approximately 11,678 publishers, of which 34,346 are peer-reviewed journals in top-level subject fields: life sciences, social sciences, physical sciences, and health sciences. We would like to ask you for a moment of your time to fill in a short questionnaire, at the end of your visit. Please update this article to reflect recent events or newly available information. //-->. Scimagojr.com provides country ranking based on Total Published Documents, Citable documents, Citations, Self-Citations, Citations per Document and h-index. Book series are usually published irregularly. As per this website, as of 2019[update], the United States (h-index : 2222) was in first place, the United Kingdom (h-index : 1373) was in the second place and Germany (h-index : 1203) was in third place based on national h-index.[10]. Before suggesting a serial title, please: The individual who suggests a title and the publisher (if different) will be informed about the outcome of the review and reason(s) for the decision.

Upon completing the re-evaluation process, the CSAB will decide to either continue a journal’s coverage or to discontinue the forward flow of the journal coverage in Scopus (content covered in Scopus prior to the re-evaluation completion will remain in Scopus). All metadata must contain BIC or BISAC subject area codes. Titles discontinued from Scopus via the Re-evaluation process can be identified via the Discontinued sources from Scopus (XLSX, 75.1 KB), For questions, please contact re-evaluation@scopus.com. NONE of these titles are currently covered by Scopus. And just because a journal may have a Scopus logo on their web site, this does not mean they’re indexed in Scopus.
