List of the Higher Attestation Commission: User Interface in the RSJ Database and Elibrary.Ru

The list of peer-reviewed scientific journals of the Higher Attestation Commission is gradually becoming a complex information system that is based on the normative documents of the Higher Attestation Commission, bibliometric data eLibrary.ru, and decisions of the expert councils of the Higher Attestation Commission and working groups engaged in the analysis, ranking and categorization of the journals of the list. The database of Russian Scientific Journals (RSJ) created by RIEPL may come to serve the requests of different categories of users in relation to the topic of dissertation defense. So far, the RSJ has implemented the interface of a representative of the journal’s editorial board and the interface of a member of the expert council of the Higher Attestation Commission. It is desirable to include in the RSJ an open interface that is addressed to the degree applicant to verify compliance with the requirements of the Higher Attestation Commission for publications in journals from the List. With the established mutual exchange of data between RSJ and eLibrary.ru, the applicant’s interface with the designated functionality can be organized in the eLibrary.ru user environment.
