    Find the Right Journal for Your Article

    There are some steps one should take in determining to which journal to submit an article.  Credibility of a journal is one of the most important factors.  Under the Library's Writing and Publishing section, there is a segment on Assessing Journal Credibility.  The other factor to consider is how often a topic or related topics are published in certain journals.  By performing a search on a topic, both Web of Science and Scopus allow for sorting by the number of times a topic has been published in journals. 

    For assistance with using Web of Science or Scopus, please contact Ask a Librarian.

    The WHSC Library also subscribes to Nature Masterclasseswhich has 13 modules about how to select a journal.  One of the modules explores "Criteria for selecting a journal."  Available to Emory faculty, staff, and students, register with your Emory University email for access to the modules.
