The FWJ is Now Indexed in International Databases
The FWJ is Now Indexed in International Databases

The Fourth World Journal (FWJ) expanded its international presence in 2025 by joining several academic databases and indexing systems, making our content accessible to a global community.

At present, FWJ is listed in:

  • Informit: An Australian platform for academic and professional publications that brings together journals across a wide range of subjects. Inclusion in Informit makes our work accessible to a specialized audience in the fields of social sciences, education, and the humanities.

  • Ulrichsweb (Ulrich’s Periodicals Directory): One of the most authoritative directories of serial publications worldwide. Being listed here affirms FWJ’s status as an active academic journal and makes it visible to libraries, universities, and researchers seeking reliable information on scholarly publications.

  • EBSCO: Among the most widely used databases in academic libraries across the globe. Through EBSCO, FWJ articles are accessible to researchers, professionals, and students who rely on this platform as a central gateway to scholarly resources.

  • Google Scholar: The most widely used academic search engine, which enables all researchers to find, cite, and link to  FWJ articles directly through online searches.

  • Gale Academic OneFile: A platform that connects university library users with thousands of scholarly titles. Inclusion in Gale ensures that FWJ’s content is integrated into a well-established research ecosystem.

  • Electronic Journals Library (EZB): A network of academic libraries in Europe that organizes and facilitates access to thousands of scientific journals. With this listing, FWJ strengthens its presence in the European research space.
What This Means for Authors and Readers

For authors, being included in these databases increases the visibility and impact of their work, ensuring that it can be read and cited across different academic contexts. For readers, it guarantees increased global access to FWJ content.

Each index serves as a bridge between authors and readers, between local knowledge and international communities, and between the present and future generations who will consult our archives.

The FWJ celebrates this milestone and reaffirms its commitment to building an academic space that is open, inclusive, and globally connected.
