Board details for TR Dizin

TR Dizin (Türkiye's national citation index) requires at least one third of the editorial board to come from other institutions. For this reason, select for each member whether they are from the publishing institution or from another one. If the Editorial board group has members, the share is calculated from this group. Otherwise it is calculated from the whole board.

The TR Dizin checklist also looks for the editor-in-chief, the section editors and the language editor. Enter these members with the matching groups. Members with a missing institution, city or country also appear as warnings in the checklist.

Adding an index

1. On the Indexes card, press Add index.
2. Type the name of the index in the Index name field.
3. In the Verification address field, type the address of the journal's page in that index. The address must start with https://.
4. Press Save.

An index without an address is saved too. The Source links of the indexes row in the TR Dizin checklist shows which indexes have no link. If TR Dizin is among the indexes, JournTech sends reminders to upload published issues to ODİS, the journal system of TR Dizin. Details are in Downloading the ODİS Package.
