Information For Librarians

We propose that scientific libraries include our journal Challenges and Issues of Modern Science in their electronic collections. We are interested in actively collaborating with libraries to ensure broad access to our electronic resources. Additionally, our publishing system, like those of leading journals, includes integration tools with library software such as:

  • OAI-PMH (Open Archives Initiative Protocol for Metadata Harvesting): This protocol allows libraries to automatically store and update article metadata, ensuring efficient search and indexing of the journal's content in their catalogs.
  • Dublin Core: Support for this metadata standard ensures compatibility with many library systems and repositories, simplifying the integration and data exchange process.
  • Integration with Library Management Systems: OJS supports integration with popular library management systems such as DSpace, Fedora, and others, allowing automatic addition of new issues and articles to libraries' electronic catalogs.
  • SWORD Protocol (Simple Web-service Offering Repository Deposit): A protocol for the automated transfer of documents from OJS to other repositories, such as library systems or institutional archives.
  • CrossRef Integration: Ensures automatic assignment of DOIs (Digital Object Identifiers) for articles, simplifying the citation and search process in various scientific databases.
  • Citation Export: Support for various citation export formats (BibTeX, EndNote, RIS) allows researchers to easily integrate references into their bibliographic managers.

These and other tools allow libraries to ensure archival preservation of the journal's electronic content and/or directly participate in the publishing process, meeting the standards of leading scientific publications. For more details on these capabilities, please visit the Open Journal Systems website.

Additionally, the journal provides information in the form of metadata that complies with the standards and requirements of platforms such as Google Scholar, enhancing the visibility and discoverability of articles.
