ERIH PLUS

ERIH PLUS is a European journal index covering the Social Sciences and Humanities field, providing a list of quality-checked journals. The services are placed in the Norwegian Directorate for Higher Education and Skills where also the Norwegian Register for Scientific Journals, Series and Publishers are placed. The two journal indexes work together in several areas to ensure quality and efficiency in both lists. The ERIH PLUS services also consist of an article service which is powered by Dimensions. They harvest articles from the indexed (approved) journals and present the articles in a powerful article search: https://erih.dimensions.ai/discover/publication The article search is free and open and provide full-text in the cases where the articles are open access. The ERIH PLUS journal index is also a free and open-to-all service: https://kanalregister.hkdir.no/publiseringskanaler/erihplus/
