Indexing & Archiving
JBRES articles are indexed in major international databases, ensuring your research reaches the widest possible audience.
Why Indexing Matters
Indexing in prestigious databases dramatically increases the discoverability, citability, and impact of every published article. When your research is indexed across multiple platforms, it reaches researchers, clinicians, and policymakers who would otherwise never find it — accelerating scientific progress and maximizing your contribution to your field.

Archiving & Preservation
JBRES is committed to the long-term preservation of published research. Articles are archived through multiple redundant systems to ensure permanent accessibility even in the event of technical issues with the primary website.
- Internet Archive (Wayback Machine) — automatic archiving of all published articles
- CrossRef DOI persistence — permanent DOI resolution guaranteed through CrossRef infrastructure
- CLOCKSS — dark archive for trigger-event preservation (in progress)
- PKP PN (Private LOCKSS Network) — distributed preservation across partner institutions (in progress)
DOI Registration
Every article published in JBRES receives a permanent Digital Object Identifier (DOI) registered with CrossRef, the industry standard for scholarly DOI registration. This ensures:
- Permanent, resolvable link to the article — even if our URL structure changes in the future
- Citation tracking across all CrossRef-member journals and databases worldwide
- Integration with reference management software (Zotero, Mendeley, EndNote, etc.)
- Discoverability in CrossRef Metadata Search and Cited-By services
Planned Future Indexing
We are actively pursuing indexing in the following databases and anticipate additions in the near future:
- PubMed / MEDLINE — application pending
- Scopus — application in preparation
- Web of Science (Emerging Sources Citation Index) — in preparation
- EMBASE — targeted for pharmaceutical and clinical articles
- PsycINFO — for mental health and neuroscience articles
- AGRIS (FAO) — for agricultural and environmental articles
- CINAHL — for nursing and allied health articles
Even before additional databases are added, every JBRES article is immediately discoverable via Google Scholar and CrossRef — the two most widely used academic discovery tools globally — from the moment of publication.
