8. INTERNATIONAL STANDARD
SERIAL NUMBER (ISSN)
• An International Standard Serial Number (ISSN) is an
eight-digit serial number used to uniquely identify a serial
publication, such as a magazine The ISSN is especially helpful
in distinguishing between serials with the same title. ISSN are
used in ordering, cataloging, interlibrary loans, and other
practices in connection with serial literature.
• The ISSN system was first drafted as an International
Organization for Standardization (ISO) international standard
in 1971 and published as ISO 3297 in 1975. ISO subcommittee
TC 46/SC 9 is responsible for maintaining the standard.

9. • When a serial with the same content is published in more
than one media type, a different ISSN is assigned to each
media type. For example, many serials are published both in
print and electronic media. The ISSN system refers to these
types as print ISSN (p-ISSN) and electronic ISSN (e-ISSN),
respectively Conversely, as defined in ISO 3297:2007,
every serial in the ISSN system is also assigned a linking
ISSN (ISSN-L), typically the same as the ISSN assigned to
the serial in its first published medium, which links together
all ISSNs assigned to the serial in every medium.

10. WHAT IS VOLUME AND ISSUE?
• Volume typically refers to the number of years the
publication has been circulated.
• Ex: VOLUME 03-2018
• Issue refers to how many times that periodical has
been published during that year.
• Ex: ISSUE 03 ( OCT-NOV-DEC)

11. WHAT IS ISSN?

12. IMPACT FACTOR
• Impact factor is the calculation of yearly average
number of citations that articles published in the last 2
years in a given journal.
• Formula: y= Citations(y-1) + Citations(y-2)
Publication(y-1) + Publication(y-2)

13. • An indexed journal means that the journal has gone through
and passed a review process of certain requirements done by
a journal indexer. Basically, every institution can be an
indexer but in the academic world, an indexer should be one
who is trusted and reputable in doing such a job.
• Non-indexed (SCI/SCOPUS) journals contents are mostly
not authentically peer reviewed. Publishing scientific works
without peer reviewed causes more harm to the scientific
society than no publication at all. Publish less but they
should be in reputed indexed journals.

14. • Here are some of the most reputed journal indexing agencies
where you can check the indexing and apply for it.
• Google Scholar.
• Scopus.
• PubMed.
• EBSCO.
• IJIFACTOR.
• EMBASE.
• DOAJ.
• ISI Indexing

15. Journal Impact
• Impact Factor - What is it?; Why use it?
• The impact factor (IF) is a measure of the frequency with which
the average article in a journal has been cited in a particular
year. It is used to measure the importance or rank of a journal
by calculating the times it's articles are cited.
• How Impact Factor is Calculated?
• The calculation is based on a two-year period and involves
dividing the number of times articles were cited by the number
of articles that are citable.

16. • Calculation of 2010 IF of a journal:
• A = the number of times articles published in 2008 and 2009 were
cited by indexed journals during 2010.
• B = the total number of "citable items" published in 2008 and 2009.
• A/B = 2010 impact factor
• See Introducing the Impact Factor and Reliability of the Impact
Factor for more information.
• The Impact Factor is reported in Journal Citation Reports (JCR)
• Cite Score, which is similar to the IF but is based on a 4-year period.
