71st edition of the Journal Quality List online
New version of the Journal Quality List with no less than four updated rankings
The latest version of the Journal Quality List is now available, with no less than four updated rankings (the ABS/AJG 2024 list, the EJL 2024 list, Scopus CiteScores 2024, and the VHB 2024 list). The JQL is a collation of journal rankings from a variety of sources; the current version contains eleven different rankings of more than 830 journals. See also: Frequently Asked Questions about the JQL.
Please note: crowd-sourcing your input
After 25 years of regular updates, continued maintenance the JQL has become a bit of a burden; I have no support - financial or human - for this. So if you spot any inaccuracies or omissions, please contact me by email. That way we can keep this resource accurate and accessible to all. If you have information about updated lists, please also let me know, so I can include them in the next update.
Rankings of a variety of countries included
