The difference between provincial periodicals and national periodicals: in fact, the state has never classified publications, which means that there is no difference in influence and professionalism between provincial periodicals and national periodicals. The so-called distinction between national periodicals and provincial periodicals is mainly for the convenience of management, according to the level of periodical authorities. That is, the periodicals in charge of state units are national periodicals, and the periodicals in charge of provincial units are provincial periodicals.

1 legal journals and illegal journals

Domestic periodicals are divided into formal periodicals and informal periodicals. Regular sci-tech periodicals are approved by the State Press and Publication Administration and the State Science and Technology Commission within the agreed number and incorporated into the "unified domestic serial number". The application for running a journal is relatively strict, and the editor-in-chief and deputy editor-in-chief must be held by senior professional and technical personnel. There are certain requirements for the quality of editors, and regular periodicals have independent publishing policies.

An informal periodical refers to a periodical that is approved by the administrative department to receive the "approval of internal newspapers and periodicals" as internal communication (generally limited to internal communication and not publicly issued), but it is also a legal periodical. Generally speaking, formal journals have gone through the process of informal journals.

Illegal periodicals refer to illegal publications that are not registered as "internal publications" without the approval of the Press and Publication Administration and the State Science and Technology Commission. Their primary purpose is to make a profit and charge a high page fee. They are technically and politically irresponsible and cannot be issued publicly or internally in China. They usually spend 300 yuan to buy an ISSN number abroad to cheat teachers.

serial number

2. Number of domestic periodicals

All the official periodicals approved by the State Press and Publication Administration and the State Science and Technology Commission are incorporated into the "Domestic Unified Number". The serial number of official periodicals consists of two parts: the international standard serial number (ISSN) and the domestic unified serial number (CN) (the legal distribution of overseas periodicals in China must be filed by the Press and Publication Administration and approved by China Library Corporation, etc.). ). "CN" is the country code of China, lacking "domestic unified serial number (or domestic recognized serial number)".

Three Methods of Identifying General Periodicals

Domestic public periodicals are allowed to be distributed at home and abroad, with a unified domestic serial number. Their serial number structure is: CN newspaper registration number/classification number. Only ISSN international serial numbers without a unified domestic serial number are not allowed to be publicly issued in China, and some are printed with CN(HK) or CNXXX (HK)/R, which are domestic serial numbers fabricated by domestic lawless elements to deceive readers who are eager to publish papers. The legal domestic unified serial number shall be indicated. Generally speaking, domestic official periodicals have the competent units of domestic state organs (non-China/China XX Association), and there are detailed editing and publishing mailing addresses and printing and publishing places in China. In addition to self-issuance, most of them are subscribed through the post office, so there are often postal codes. However, illegal periodicals only have international standard serial numbers or domestic CN serial numbers, even if they are "internal newspaper certification".

To sum up, papers published in international journals and magazines that have certain international influence and domestic approval numbers can be used by authors to improve their international popularity and influence. Of course, papers published in illegal journals may not be recognized in China. It should be said that it is meaningless to evaluate professional titles. As for how to resist the prevalence of these "illegal periodicals", on the one hand, the domestic press and publication departments should seriously investigate and deal with these "periodicals" to prevent legitimate newspapers from becoming such "periodicals"

The standard format of CN serial number is: CN XX-XXXX, in which the first two digits are the area numbers of provinces, autonomous regions and municipalities directly under the Central Government, and CN(HK/H) or CNXXX(HK)/NR/R is printed, which is not a legal domestic unified serial number.

The first two XX codes in the format are as follows:

1 1. Beijing 12. Tianjin 13. Hebei 14. Shanxi 15. Inner Mongolia autonomous region 2 1. Liaoning 22. Jilin 23. Heilongjiang 3 1. Shanghai. 7. Shandong Province 4 1. Henan province. Hubei province. Hunan province. Guangdong province. Guangxi Zhuang Autonomous Region

46. Hainan province Alternate number 48. Alternate number 49. Alternate number 50. Chongqing 5 1. Sichuan 52. Guizhou 54. Xizang Autonomous Region 6 1. Shaanxi 62. Gansu 63. Qinghai 64. Ningxia Hui Autonomous Region. Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region.

According to state regulations, it is illegal to run a magazine in different places. If the friends who submitted the journal find that there is no serial number in the above area, they should be able to compare and judge.

Periodical classification

There are more than 8,000 periodicals in China, which are quite different in disciplines, organizers, competent departments, quality and services. Although the national administrative department has never classified the current periodicals from the administrative point of view, the concept of periodical classification has long been deeply rooted in the hearts of the people. Moreover, it is impossible and unrealistic for more than 8,000 journals to have no level difference. In fact, periodicals have always been graded, which is almost the consensus of relevant government agencies, periodical organizers and authors. However, the determination of periodical grades is complicated, and there is no unified national standard and general grading catalogue so far. The most traditional classification of periodicals is based on the competent department of periodicals. 199 1 The Measures for the Administration of Sci-tech Journals jointly issued by the State Science and Technology Commission and the Press and Publication Administration divides journals into national and local journals, provincial and ministerial journals and prefecture-level journals. In 1970s, the theory of core journals was introduced into China, and by 1990s, core journals had been widely known in academic circles. At the same time, a variety of large-scale databases related to periodical evaluation began to be established, from which a variety of periodical rankings were obtained. Many scientific research institutions in colleges and universities also study and formulate them as second-hand core journals (or key journals, etc.). ), the relevant government departments organized various periodical rating. The above-mentioned periodical grading evaluation, ranking list and various periodical lists or awards are all graded periodicals in essence. It can be seen that the concept of periodical classification has long been deeply rooted in people's hearts (for example, Nature in Britain and Science in the United States are recognized as first-class academic journals all over the world, and the scientific research award of Zhejiang University Medical College stipulates that it costs 654.38+10,000 yuan to publish academic papers in Science and Nature), and the research and practice of periodical classification is becoming more and more abundant and diversified. This is the most traditional periodical grading method, and it is also the main method still in use at present. According to this classification method, periodicals are divided into national, provincial and ministerial level, and prefecture-level periodicals. Academic journals sponsored by scientific research institutes, universities and national first-class societies representing the national scientific research level are generally regarded as national journals, as well as provincial and ministerial journals, prefecture-level journals and so on.
