[One more step in the quality of 'Farmacéuticos Comunitarios': indexing]

The reason for existence of a scientific journal is to disseminate knowledge of science. The objective is a continuous improvement in the quality of what is published and an increase in the number of readers. In this sense, the impact factor is an indicator that helps us visualize the improvement in the quality of our journal. To improve this impact factor, indexing in the most used databases is very important.Farmacéuticos Comunitarios is indexed in several index journals but we were missing the most used ones. In this last year we have requested indexing in the most important ones, SCOPUS and Medline. In November we received SCOPUS approval and are close to getting it on Medline. In September we were approved by the editorial criteria and in December by the scientists. We only need the technical criteria to be able to appear in Medline and in its online version PubMed. We are working on it and it is very likely that within a year we will be indexed in PubMed.
