The Tuah Publisher team took part in a journal management workshop toward Scopus, held at Padepokan Jurnal, the journal hub of Universitas Ma’arif Lampung (UMALA). The event is part of an ongoing effort to strengthen scholarly journal governance so that journals become more professional, credible, and ready for reputable international indexing.
The workshop was warm and interactive. Participants did not only listen to presentations; they also reviewed live examples of journal websites shown on screen. This hands-on approach made it easier to apply each concept to the management of their own journals.
The discussion began with strengthening Open Journal System (OJS) as the foundation of online journal management, from site layout and complete metadata to a consistent publishing workflow. Participants also looked closely at the parts of a journal website that indexing bodies often pay attention to.
The session then moved on to improving manuscript quality and the review process. An objective, documented, and timely review is one of the main indicators of a journal’s readiness for international standing. Publication ethics and manuscript originality were also covered.
The workshop also covered strategies for meeting Scopus indexing criteria, including governance, publication regularity, article scope and quality, and international readability. This gave a clearer view of the steps to prepare, one stage at a time.
Through this event, Tuah Publisher hopes to build the capacity of the journals it manages and strengthen its collaboration with UMALA in developing a quality scholarly publishing ecosystem. The results of the workshop are expected to be followed up with real improvements in each journal, so that the goal of Scopus indexing can be pursued in a measured way.
