The Iraqi Journal of Administrative Sciences, affiliated with the University of Karbala, has officially joined the American organization Crossref and obtained a permanent Digital Object Identifier (DOI). This step aims to enhance the indexing of future publications with DOI, while gradually indexing previous issues in English.
DOI is a critical tool in scientific publishing, ensuring permanent access to digital content regardless of URL changes. It also improves the discoverability of research through digital search tools and enables publishers to track citations accurately.
This initiative reflects the journal’s commitment to advancing the quality of scientific publishing and preparing for future participation in reputable international indices.
