ARTICLE DISCOVERY
Visibility, Indexing & Archiving
PGRI supports the discoverability, citation, and long-term availability of published research through structured article metadata, open access, and a progressive indexing strategy.
Discovery and metadata services
Proceedings and paper metadata is prepared for wide academic discovery. PGRI maintains a clear distinction between services used for metadata and discoverability and independent indexing databases that evaluate journals against their own criteria.

Visibility & Indexing applications
PGRI may submit applications to recognised databases and directories, including DOAJ, Scopus, Web of Science, CAB Abstracts, GEOBASE, RePEc, ProQuest, EBSCO, CNKI, and ERIC, where the platform’s scope and published record are eligible. Evaluation, acceptance, timing, and coverage are determined solely by each independent provider.
Archiving and author access
Published articles remain openly accessible on the PGRI platform. PGRI’s preservation approach supports responsible long-term retention through recognised digital archiving arrangements. Authors retain copyright and may share the published version in institutional repositories, subject repositories, and personal academic pages with appropriate citation.
