Hi,

I need a little guidance, SSBRJ’s second issue is ready. However, want to assign the DOI so how do we do that. If I can have some guidance or video to assist. Last time we did in March 2025 so It is a little while. Please guide through.

Regards,

Dr. Adnan ul Haque

Scientific Societal & Behavioral Research Journal (SSBRJ)

Hello @adnan ,

Thanks for your message, and welcome to our Community Forum. I can see that back in March your submission https://doi.crossref.org/servlet/submissionAdmin?sf=detail&submissionID=1680415954 used our web deposit form. I am including step-by-step instructions for registering your journal articles using our web deposit form, like you did in March.

Your journal DOI is 10.63329/av3nz123. You should use that journal DOI again with these submissions.

My best,

Isaac

Registering your journal articles using the web deposit form
Broadly speaking, assuming you have recently published a new issue of your journal and you want to register DOIs for all articles in the issue, the steps to take to use the web deposit form are:

  1. Select the Journal data type
  2. Enter the Journal and Issue level metadata on the first page of the form. At minimum this includes: Journal title, abbreviated journal title, ISSN(s), and at least one publication year (print or online). If applicable, also enter issue number, volume number, and full publication dates.
    [Journal DOI and Issue DOI are optional. If you don’t wish to deposit Journal-level and Issue-level DOIs, simply leave these fields as well as Journal URL and Issue URL empty. Keep in mind that, if you do deposit a Journal DOI, it refers to the journal as a whole, and therefore cannot change in future deposits]
  3. Select ‘Add Articles’
  4. On the second page of the form, enter the metadata for your first article (article title, authors, page numbers if available), the article DOI, and article URL
  5. Click ‘Add Another Article’
  6. Continue to enter article metadata, DOIs, and URLs until you’ve entered all articles for the given issue.
  7. Click ‘Finish’
  8. Enter your username and password and click Login
  9. Enter your email address and click ‘Deposit’

We also have a web deposit form video tutorial and full instructions for using the web deposit form in our documentation.
