Ranking of Journals based on Citations, H-Index and RAI, RUAI, UAI: A Study Using SJR
Subscribe/Renew Journal
SCImago Journal and Country Rank are being published every year with h-index, citations, self-citations of journals. There are more than 34000 journals published in the world and ranked by the SCImago Journal Rank (SJR). The publications in library and information science from Asiatic and SAARC countries are listed with h-index, citations and so on. Over 54 million documents are available in the database. The top three countries are United States, China and United Kingdom. The study found that ranking varies based on different parameters.
