Implementation of Article ID (e-Location ID) System

and Revision of Digital Object Identifier (DOI) Format

The Journal of Humanities and Social Sciences, Surindra Rajabhat University is committed to enhancing its journal management and publication system in accordance with nationally and internationally recognized scholarly publishing standards. The journal adheres to the evaluation criteria of the Thai Journal Citation Index Centre (TCI) and aligns with international academic database practices in order to improve quality, credibility, transparency, and citation accuracy.

To comply with these standards, starting from the 2026 publication year onward, all published articles will adopt an Article ID (e-Location ID) system in place of continuous page numbering for the online format. Additionally, all articles will be registered with a Digital Object Identifier (DOI) under the Crossref system.

Article ID (e-Location ID) Format

Each article will be assigned a unique identifier in the following format:

eX

Where:

  • e = electronic article (international standard)

  • X = article number (corresponding to the Submission ID in the ThaiJO system)

DOI Structure

The journal uses the following DOI Prefix:

10.65205/jhssrru

The DOI Suffix corresponds to the Article ID system and follows the standard format:

https://doi.org/10.65205/jhssrru.YYYY.eX

Where:

  • YYYY = year of publication (A.D.)

  • e = electronic article

  • X = article number (identical to the Article ID)

Purpose of the Implementation

The adoption of the Article ID (e-Location ID) system aims to ensure precise identification, citation, and indexing of articles in academic databases. This approach is consistent with contemporary digital publishing standards and supports online and open access journal dissemination.

This transition reflects the journal’s commitment to modernization, systematic publication management, and international best practices. It enhances global citation visibility and supports academic use of published works for professional and scholarly evaluation purposes.

 

Note

The use of the Article ID (e-Location ID) system instead of continuous page numbering is widely recognized in international scholarly publishing and is fully compatible with TCI evaluation criteria.
