Atlas & Atlas PLUS – Evaluation Process for Inclusion

Atla routinely evaluates new titles for inclusion in Atla’s full-text collections of journals AtlaSerials^® (Atlas^®) and AtlaSerials PLUS^® (Atlas PLUS^®). Our criteria include:

• The content of a journal must be appropriate for inclusion in Atla Religion Database^®(Atla RDB^®).
• Subject area or language of a given title, with preference given to titles that deepen or expand the coverage of the full text.
• Preference is given to journals that support individuals in academic scholarship or study. Journals for religious leaders and/or laity are not excluded by policy.
• Recommendations by scholars, clergy, librarians, and other audiences.
• Current publication or historical value.
• Coverage in other full-text databases: Preference is given to titles that are not available elsewhere in full text.
• Frequency of citation usage for the journal by users of Atla Religion Database.

To recommend a journal for evaluation, send title information including ISSN, publisher information, and contact information for the legal owner of the journal, if known, to our content development staff.
