What does this mean for you?
- Already published? Articles up to the final covered issue (2018, Vol. 12, Issue 1) stay in Scopus as part of the scientific record.
- Published after that issue? Those articles are not indexed in Scopus and usually won't count as "Scopus-indexed" for promotions, PhD or grants.
- Planning to submit? Choose an actively indexed journal instead — use our Journal Suggester or Scopus Status Checker.
