Greetings, esteemed scholars! Given the nature of our work, we constantly strive to keep track of all changes and stay up to date on developments in the world of scientific publications. We carefully analyze indexing status, publication schedules for various journals, and their inclusion in scientometric databases to ensure that we always provide you with up-to-date information and high-quality service. For this reason, we traditionally share with you a list of journals that have lost their Scopus indexing. Today, we will review the journals removed from Scopus during October and November 2023.
According to the results of the checks, 10 journals have been excluded from the database over the past two months, namely:
- Anthropogenic Pollution (Print-ISSN 27831736) (E-ISSN 25884646) Publisher – Islamic Azad University;
- Axioms (E-ISSN 20751680). Publisher – Multidisciplinary Digital Publishing Institute (MDPI);
- Human Review (E-ISSN 26959623). Publisher – Eagora Science;
- Information Sciences Letters (Print-ISSN 20909551) (E-ISSN 2090956X). Publisher — Natural Sciences Publishing;
- International Journal of Emerging Technologies in Learning (Print-ISSN 18688799) (E-ISSN 18630383). Publisher – International Association of Online Engineering;
- International Journal on Recent and Innovation Trends in Computing and Communication (E-ISSN 23218169). Publisher – Auricle Global Society of Education and Research;
- Journal International Academy of Medical Sciences (Print-ISSN 0971071X). Publisher – Mary Ann Liebert Inc.;
- Journal of Environmental Management and Tourism (E-ISSN 20687729). Publisher – ASERS Publishing House;
- Science and Technology (Print-ISSN 2147611X). Publisher — International Society for Technology, Education, and Science;
- TECHNO Review. International Technology, Science and Society Review / Revista Internacional de Tecnologia, Ciencia y Sociedad (E-ISSN 26959933). Publisher – Eagora Science.
The reasons for exclusion from the Scopus database are the same for all these journals – concerns about publication timing. What does this mean:
- The journal has stopped monitoring the quality and content of articles, and accepts a huge number of low-quality articles for money.
- An increase in the number of published articles. For example, if a journal published 100 articles last year and 500-600 articles this year, this is already a cause for concern.
These are the main reasons why journals are removed from Scopus.
