Academic Journal Guide 2018, coming soon

The 2018 edition of the Academic Journal Guide will be published on 14 March 2018. This edition of the AJG will see a number of new journals enter the list, taking the total number of journals covered to 1,582.

The AJG is now published on a three-year cycle. AJG 2018 is an interim update and focuses on a number of aims:

• To strengthen the consultation process undertaken by the subject experts on the Scientific Committee with learned societies and the peer community;
• To consider applications made by new journals to join the list;
• To review the Journal of Distinction category;
• To review a small number of journals that were particularly difficult to classify in the 2015 edition;
• To consider cases submitted by publishers and editors for reviewing journals already included in AJG 2015;
• To transfer, where appropriate, journals across subject areas and to redefine a subject area to include gender and diversity journals.
