JSDS ensures comprehensive indexing and abstracting of all published papers. Here's how we manage indexing, abstracting, and storage:

1. DOI Assignment
• All articles are indexed using Crossref, which assigns DOI numbers to each article. These DOI numbers are prominently displayed on the first page of every article, ensuring easy identification and citation.
2. Submission to Crossref
• Crossref receives PDF copies of all articles, along with complete reference lists, ensuring accurate indexing and seamless access to scholarly content.
3. Abstract Accessibility
• Abstracts of all articles are readily accessible on the journal's website, enabling readers to quickly grasp the essence of each article.
4. Storage and Accessibility
• The content of the journal is securely stored and made accessible to the public via ejournalplus, our trusted editorial management platform.
5. Future Endeavors
• We are committed to further enhancing the visibility and accessibility of our journal by registering with esteemed databases such as DOAJ, Scopus, and PubMed Central (PMC). This initiative will broaden the availability of abstracts and facilitate the permanent storage of all journal articles, ensuring long-term accessibility and impact.

We strive to maintain the highest standards of indexing, abstracting, and storage to facilitate widespread dissemination and accessibility of scholarly research in the field of strategic and defense studies.
