joint STM APAC meeting<\/a> with the China National Publications Import & Export (Group) Corporation (CNPIEC) during the Beijing International Book Fair (BIBF), the Second China Symposium co-organized with the Society of China University Journals (CUJS) on the morning of October 13 (the day before the STM Frankfurt Conference), and joint training with the Institute of Scientific and Technical Information of China (ISTIC) later this year.<\/p>\n![\"\"](\"https:\/\/s3.eu-west-2.amazonaws.com\/stm.offloadmedia\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/17025505\/b3412a983942fe47254f019b67c5e63-1024x509.jpg\")
<\/p>\n
Member representatives engaged in discussions on a variety of issues. For example, with the increasing number of STM members in China, the demand for training for new editors and publishers is also growing. Could more targeted training courses be held in China? Various open access journal lists have been released by Chinese institutions. How can these lists be better understood? Research integrity has been a hot topic in recent years. Could STM provide typical integrity case studies? There are many differences between Chinese local publishing institutions and international publishers. What are the direct and efficient communication channels for them when applying for STM membership? Can the China Symposium in Frankfurt be live-streamed? Is registration required? Can the number of participants be larger than in 2023?<\/p>\n
The second session was chaired by Na Rongqi. Yue Ting from the Journal Ranking Team introduced the review criteria for Open Access Journals Index (OAJ), the number of journal applications received so far, and the number of journals already included, among other information. Shen Zhesi introduced the compilation status of this year’s journal ranking and the early warning list. It is worth noting that this year’s journal ranking covers journals included in OAJ. The two experts also answered questions from the participants.<\/p>\n
The STM China Chapter specially thanked Professor Yang Liying, Mr. Chen Fuyou, and other members of the Journal Ranking Team for their strong support for this meeting.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
