In the COBISS.SI system, the data on journals' impact factors for 2022 was added to the SNIP database and the data for previous years has been updated (Impact factor (1999–2022)).

September 7, 2023

In the COBISS.SI system, the data on journals' impact factors for 2022 was added to the JCR (Journal Citation Reports) database (Impact factor (1994–2022)). As of 2022, impact factors only have one decimal place. 

At the moment, the JCR database still only displays journals from the SCIE and SSCI databases, even though the impact factor was also given to journals in the AHCI and ESCI databases for the first time in 2022. However, these journals have not been ranked in categories yet and are not categorised into quartiles in the first year. With regards of the evaluation of articles in journals that are part of AHCI and ESCI, there are no changes in researchers' bibliographies for now.
