Scopus is owned by Elsevier, and it is one of the most important indices in the academic publishing world. Content sent to Scopus for evaluation is put through a rigorous review process performed by an independent review board made up of experts in their fields. The manuscripts that pass the Scopus evaluation process have proven their worth to the academic community.
IGI Global would like to acknowledge and congratulate the editors and authors who made distinguished contributions to these reference publications.
All of these publications are available within the
IGI Global e-Book Collection, an interdisciplinary collection of over 7,300 e-books focusing on emerging research, all hosted on the InfoSci Platform. This platform offers institutions full-text PDF and XML format with no DRM, unlimited simultaneous users at no additional charge, remote access options, flexible acquisition models, and diverse & international perspectives from leading experts.
Indices such as Scopus evaluate potential titles on the quality of their content, the diversity of authorship, and the content’s usage and impact.
IGI Global’s Open Access (OA) publishing provides authors with more sharing capabilities to increase the discoverability of the content, better promote its citation rate, and increase its chances of being indexed. Current chapters and past chapters can still have a CC BY license applied and be changed to the Open Access model.
