Nomination of Journals for Inclusion

If you represent a journal and would like to see it included in Periodicals Archive Online, nominations are welcomed. Journals must, however, meet several criteria to be included. To ascertain whether your publication is eligible and for instructions about how to proceed, refer to the Criteria and procedure for inclusion of journals page. You may also make recommendations without being a representative of a journal, but any prospective additions will depend on an agreement being reached with the publisher.
