Today, many learned societies are very interested in publishing international journal, especially for titles from non-English speaking countries. In Korea, there is not many studies on publishing international journals except for some cases trying to internationalize domestic journals. This study analyzed international factors of domestic 143 titles offering DOI by KoreaScience. The analysis showed that many of these journals have low impact factors and editorial board without a lot of foreign scholars. Some titles don't have online submission platform or English websites. It is recommended that domestic journals should reinforce international factors including global distribution with visibility to be considered as reputable international journals.

It is essential to conduct an analysis of superior journals, facilitate the international distribution of domestic journals, and determine an effective way to promote a journal's international distribution. This study seeks to determine an effective approach to the international distribution of Korean medical and life science journals and investigates the bibliographies, home pages, and databases about four international distribution factors with regard to 90 journals arranged into three categories. For the effective way of distributing domestic journals internationally, we should develope Korean journals with international standards, record the journals' articles in international and domestic databases, raise the rate of international subscription and holding journals. and publish electronic journals linking their electronic files with many databases.

최근 국제학술지에 등재되는 한국 의학논문이 증가하는 이유가 SCI 또는 MEDLINE 학술지를 선호하는 연구업적 평가정책과 관련이 있는지에 대한 관심이 국내학계에 존재하고 있다. 본 연구에서는 1980년대에 이어 1990년대에도 SCI 학술지나 MEDLINE 학술지에 많은 논문을 발표한 의학분야 중의 하나인 방사선학분야를 중심으로, 한국 의학자들이 1990년대에 발표한 논문들의 증가추세, 국제학술지와 국내학술지 논문 분포현황을 분석하여, 우리나라 의학 학술논문의 국제화 동향과 그 특성을 고찰하였다.

Korean academic societies in science and technology are trying to improve the prestige and quality of their journals by enlisting them in international citation databases. In order to be enlisted in international citation databases, a journal should be managed and maintained according to the policies of organizations operating citation databases. In particular, a journal should have an effective on-line publishing process including fair and transparent peer-review. KISTI studied the systematical necessary element so that the domestic journal could receive the evaluation for the international index DB record. Based on this, KISTI designed the Article Contribution Management System(ACOMS) Ver. 4.0 including the academic journal homepage and completed the english ACOMS development in 2010. Presently the english ACOMS promotes the continued facility improvement in 2012 in order to be reborn as the international journal manuscript submission/review and electronic publishing system. And it is managed about the academic journal of 49 kinds including JICCE academic journal. Therefore, this paper suggests utilizing english ACOMS as a way for JICCE journal to enlist their journals in international citation database.

The purpose of this study is to suggest a model for increasing international use of Korean scholarly journals. Recently DOI and open access are remarkable from the standpoint of increasing the opportunity of global exposition and citation of domestic scholarly journal papers. The data used in investigation and analysis were from KAMJE, KISTI, DOAJ and SCIMAGO. The model comprising DOI service and open access is obtained through analyzing DOI and open access utilization models and investigation on both.

In the field of science and technology, influential international journals can easily be found in SCIE. A total number of journals published by societies or institutes in Korea are only 82 of the 8,300 SCIE titles. In this study, in light of the SCI criteria the detailed analysis, of these journals was performed for Korean SCIE journals. The results show that in general domestic journals were not actively cited, had a low level of internationality, and user services through the website was insufficient. Korean SCIE journals should continue to complement these points and elevate its reputation. Candidate journals should concentrate on recruiting more excellent papers, promoting communication with foreign researchers, enhancing domestic and international public relations, and the like. To actively support the domestic publication of excellent journals, long-term and short-term measures should be established and consistently practiced at the national level.

The study analyzed the characteristics of two library and information science journals indexed by Web of Science (WoS) and Scopus in 2015 along with two of their non-indexed sister journals. The study also analyzed the characteristics of a SCIE- and Scopus-indexed oceanographic journal published domestically along with its sister journal indexed by Scopus only. In addition, the study collected and analyzed the articles published during 2014 and 2015 in these 6 journals as well as the citations they received in 2016. By comparing the characteristics and publication data of indexed journals and their sister journals, the study aimed to identify the properties of WoS-indexed journals that may be helpful in enhancing international journal publication. The findings from the analysis of data can be summarized as follows: WoS-indexed journals publish more frequently, focus mainly on articles, are authored by researchers from many countries, and have higher quality papers that receive more citations than their non-WoS-indexed sister journals. The study also found higher rates of co-authored papers in WoS indexed journals, which were amplified in LIS journals. This is an important factor to consider for Korean LIS journals that are dominated by singe-author articles when they prepare to be indexed in WoS.

The bibliometric analysis was conducted by searching 87 abstract & index databases provided by the DIALOG to identify not only the characteristics of Korean journals covered by international databases, but also the characteristics of the databases covering such Korean journals. 248 Korean journals were identified, for which at least one paper published between 1990 and 1997 was retrievable from the DIALOG databases. These Korean journals were found in 52 databases. 141 journals(56.9%) were indexed in only one database. Most Korean journals covered in several DIALOG databases were science and engineering journals published in English. The difference in the degrees Korean journals are covered in a database is found to be statistically significant by the discipline a database covers, and by the database's journal selection policy.
