Astragalo, accepted by SCOPUS

2022-09-17

Astragalo has been accepted for Scopus.
The Scopus Content Selection & Advisory Board (CSAB) has reviewed the application and approved it for coverage. For broad information, the reviewer comments are copied below:

This is a well organised journal publishing material that is being cited, underlining the importance of the journal in its research field. The only areas of weakness are that some of those involved lack SCOPUS profiles and some of the abstracts are short. The journal is likely to interest SCOPUS users.

+ The journal has scholarly relevance as evidenced by citations in other journals currently covered by Scopus.
+ In general, the content of the articles is consistent with the scope and aims of the journal.
- Some of the abstracts are too short and without adequate detail to be of value in understanding the article content.
+ The journal has clear aims and scope/journal policies that are consistent with the journal’s content.
+ Peer review type is clearly stated and is supported by appropriate reviewer guidelines.

It is expected that by the end of October 2022 the procedure will be completed and the journal will be fully linked to SCOPUS.
