Is Annual Reviews Scopus indexed?

Indexes such as Scopus and Web of Science list journals one by one, so a publisher is never indexed as a whole. For Annual Reviews:

IndexJournalsShare
Scopus60 98%
Web of Science: SCIE, SSCI or AHCI50 82%
Web of Science: ESCI1 2%
Journal Citation Reports 202450 82%
DOAJ (fully open access)0 0%

Always confirm the journal itself on the Web of Science Master Journal List or the Scopus source list before you submit; each journal page links to them.

Frequently asked questions

Is Annual Reviews Scopus indexed?

Scopus indexes journals one by one, not publishers. Of the 61 Annual Reviews journals in our data, 60 (98%) are in the Scopus list. Check the exact journal in the table, and confirm on the Scopus source list before you submit.

Are Annual Reviews journals in Web of Science (SCIE)?

50 of its 61 journals are in the Science, Social Sciences or Arts & Humanities Citation Index (SCIE, SSCI, AHCI) and 1 in the Emerging Sources Citation Index (ESCI). Only journals in SCIE, SSCI or AHCI get an official Journal Impact Factor from Clarivate.

Which Annual Reviews journal has the highest impact factor?

By the impact factor* calculated by ScholarsColab, Annual Review of Immunology is the highest, at 33.1. This is not the official Clarivate value; check Journal Citation Reports for that.

Does Annual Reviews have open access journals?

None of its journals in our data is listed as fully open access in DOAJ. Some may still offer open access for single articles (hybrid) for a fee; the journal's guide for authors states it.

Can I get an APC waiver from Annual Reviews?

Annual Reviews's waiver and discount rules, and whether your author team qualifies, are on its APC waiver page; the free checker tests the countries of all your authors.
