About us
We manage The Norwegian Register for Scientific Journals, Series and Publishers from the headquarters of the Directorate for Higher Education and Skills in Bergen.
The team behind the Norwegian Register is a professional unit in the Norwegian Directorate. The team takes care of the suggestions to scientific publication channels and the assessment of the scientific publication channels. We provide for updates and maintenance of the database and retrofitting of the webpage and the functions. We work continuously on maintaining the database and keep up the quality on the information you can find in the Norwegian Register.
The National Board of Scholarly Publishing assist by giving advice on scientific publication and officially deciding the levels.
The national scientific panels nominates publication channels for level 2. We do often consult the scientific panels about publication channels at level 1 if we find it difficult evaluate.
We also have great use of the scientific community that gives us feedback and correct information on publication channels. It helps us keeping the Norwegian Register up to date and in making sure that the approved publication channels are of good academic quality.
If you have feedback to a specific publication channel, you can, through the publication channel's information page, write us a comment.
If you have questions or feedback to the Norwegian Register, you can contact us at publiseringskanaler@hkdir.no.
