ISSN Approval
ISSN approval refers to the process by which an ISSN National Center reviews and grants an International Standard Serial Number (ISSN) to a serial publication, such as a journal, magazine, or newsletter. Once the application is submitted, the ISSN center evaluates the provided details, including the title, publisher information, frequency, format (print or online), and additional documentation like sample issues. If the serial meets the necessary criteria, the ISSN center approves the application and assigns a unique ISSN. The approval ensures that the publication is cataloged, indexed, and properly cited in academic, library, and professional databases.
