About the Scopus Indexed Journals List 2026
Scopus, operated by Elsevier, remains the most widely-used citation database in academic publishing. A journal's inclusion in Scopus signals it has met rigorous editorial and content standards. Our 2026 indexed journals list is synced with OpenAlex and cross-references journals tracked in Scopus, Journal Citation Reports (Web of Science), and SCImago. Because Scopus and Web of Science share substantial overlap, both are included so researchers see the full set of recognized venues.
