List of Higher Attestation Commission Journals and Other Russian Indexes
Main Article Content
Abstract
In accordance with the requirement of the Higher Attestation Commission (HAC), journal issue data from the List of Peer-reviewed scientific publications in which the main scientific results of dissertations for the degree of Candidate of Sciences and for the degree of Doctor of Sciences (HAC List) have been regularly published in the Russian Science Citation Index (RSCI) in the bibliographic database eLibrary.ru for more than 20 years. In March 2023, the editorial offices of journals from the HAC List, in accordance with the recommendation of the HAC, have post data of 2022 year issues in the Russian Scientific Journals database (RSJ) created by the Russian Scientific Research Institute RIEPP. In April 2025, by order of the Ministry of Science and Higher Education of the Russian Federation, a new requirement was added — for a journal from the HAC List, along with registration in the RISC eLibrary.ru, registration in the Information System (IS) “Metaphora”, developed by the Russian Center for Scientific Information, is required. Journals from the HAC List are recommended to regularly transfer metadata of published issues of journals to the “Metaphora” through specially organized interfaces. What role do the RSJ and “Metaphora” databases play in the infrastructure of scientific publications?
In addition, according to commission of the Government of the Russian Federation, the Russian Center for Scientific Information performs the function of the operator of the “White List” of scientific journals. The “White List” in 2023 was formed by the Interdepartmental Working Group (IWG) of the Ministry of Education and Science of the Russian Federation. The "White List" is supposed to be used to monitor and evaluate the publication activity of Russian scientists. The "White List" currently includes about 29,000 English-language international journals and about 1,000 Russian-language journals from the Russian Science Citation Index (RSCI) database. In 2025, the Russian-language part of the "White List" significantly expanded due to the inclusion of journals from HAC List into the "White List". We would like to receive detailed information from the ideologists of the "White List" on how the levels (U1, U2, U3, U4) of the “White List” journals and the categories (K1, K2, K3) of journals on the HAC List will correspond?
