Nepal Journals Online (NeoJOL)

Nepal Journals OnLine (NepJOL) is a service to provide access to Nepalese-published research and increases worldwide knowledge of indigenous scholarship.

NepJOL is a database of journals published in Nepal, covering the full range of academic disciplines. The objective of NepJOL is to give greater visibility to the participating journals, and to the research they convey. NepJOL is managed by the Tribhuvan University Central Library and it is hosted by Ubiquity Press. It is also part of the Ubiquity Press Network.

Journals are selected for inclusion on NepJOL using the following criteria:

1. They are scholarly in content, and contain original research (in addition to other content).

2. Their content is peer reviewed and quality controlled.

3. They are able to provide all content for inclusion on NepJOL (tables of contents, abstracts and PDFs of full text) in electronic format.

4. They are published within Nepal. Management of publishing strategy, business development and production operation are all run from Nepal.

NepJOL provides information on each participating journal, including aims and scope, contact details and general information. It also provides Tables of contents and abstracts (where available) for all articles published within these journals. Many full-text articles are also available. All the material on NepJOL is free to view, search and browse, however copyright of all content is retained by the journals or authors – each journal will need to give permission for any use or re-use of the content that falls outside Fair Use. NepJOL is not a publisher: NepJOL provides a service to the journals by hosting their content online, and actively promoting the website to encourage the discovery of these titles and their articles. Individual journals are also using the website to publish their journals and they welcome submissions from registered users.

ERIC

ERIC indexes a wide variety of journal sources. The coverage of an approved journal source is determined by an examination of three to five current issues during the source review process, but may be updated at any time. Source coverage is defined as follows:

Comprehensively indexed journals contain an average of 80% or more education-related articles; ERIC creates a bibliographic record for all articles in every acquired issue.
Selectively indexed journals contain an average of 50-79% education-related articles and are critical to topic area coverage; ERIC applies a manual article-by-article selection process and indexes only the articles that conform to the standard and criteria outlined in the ERIC.
