Google Scholar is a freely accessible web search engine that indexes the full text of scholarly literature across an array of publishing formats and disciplines. The Google Scholar index includes most peer-reviewed online journals from Europe and America's largest scholarly publishers, plus scholarly books and other non-peer-reviewed journals. It is similar in function to the freely available Scirus from Elsevier, CiteSeerX, and getCITED. It is also similar to the subscription-based tools, Elsevier's Scopus and Thomson ISI's Web of Science. 

 

We index most of our publication-based data directly from open sources like Crossref and PubMed. If your journal articles, proceedings, books, or book chapters have DOIs and are indexed in Crossref, or if they are indexed in PubMed, there’s a high chance we’ve already included them in Dimensions as well. You can check this by searching for your journal’s name in the “Source Title” filter in Dimensions or by entering one of your publications’ DOIs in the Dimensions search. Check our support site for more information for publishers on how we index and process your content. 

 

The idea behind the ICI World of Journals database is to collect information about all functioning scientific journals. Due to the presented tools, it is possible to search for journals on the current ICI Journals Master List indexing list (ICV scoring) or the current ranking of journals created by the Ministry of Science and Higher Education (MSHE scoring) in Poland. By clicking on the title of a given periodical, you will go to its Passport, where information is supplemented and updated by editorial offices.

 

Crossref is registered as Publishers International Linking Association, Inc. (PILA) in New York, USA. You can view our certificate of incorporation and bylaws. We have tax-exempt status in the US as a 501(c)6 organization. Here is our antitrust policy and our conflict of interest policy. The board of directors governs Crossref. They meet three times a year and oversee the organization, set its strategic direction and make sure that Crossref fulfills its mission. A list of motions for the last few years is available.

 

The GARUDA (Garba Rujukan Digital) indexing database is managed by RISTEKDIKTI (Ministry of Research, Technology, and Higher Education of the Republic of Indonesia).

 

MORAREF (Ministry of Religious Affairs’ Reference) is an academic portal initiated by the Ministry of Religious Affairs of the Republic of Indonesia (Kemenag RI) and managed by the Association of Journal Managers, University Publishers, and Research Institutions in Indonesian Islamic Higher Education Institutions (PTKI – Perguruan Tinggi Keagamaan Indonesia).

 

 

ROAD provides a free access to those ISSN bibliographic records which describe scholarly resources in Open Access: journals, monographic series, conference proceedings, academic repositories and scholarly blogs. These records, created by the ISSN Network (93 National Centres worldwide + the International Centre), are enriched by information extracted from indexing and abstracting databases, directories (DOAJ, Latindex, The Keepers registry), and journals indicators (Scopus). ROAD is in line with the actions of UNESCO for promoting Open Access to scientific resources. ROAD is complementary to the Global Open Access Portal (GOAP) developed by UNESCO, and provides a snapshot of the status of Open Access to scientific information around the world.
