Where to publish - How to evaluate journals

Workshop delivered at the School ATE research seminar

In this workshop, Barbara will introduce the two primary abstract and citation databases: Web of Science and Scopus, along with their respective journal indexing methods and tools, Journal Citation Reports (JCR) and Scopus Sources. She will also show the Scimago Journal & Country Rank website, a free resource that utilises Scopus data to provide a prestige metric indicative of journal reputation (SJR). This information can be instrumental in evaluating a journal's standing in relation to its peers. Additionally, we will explore the main journal-level metrics, including Journal Impact Factor, CiteScore, and SJR.
