In this episode, we explore a major milestone for the Georgian Medical Journal (GMJ) — its official inclusion in the ETH Library catalogue within the swisscovery network in Switzerland.

This achievement represents GMJ’s integration into a national academic library system, marking a significant step forward in international visibility, credibility, and accessibility.

• What swisscovery is and its role in the Swiss academic ecosystem
• Why inclusion in ETH Library is more than indexing — it is institutional recognition
• How academic library systems differ from traditional indexing platforms
• GMJ’s current indexing landscape (Crossref, Google Scholar, OpenAIRE, Zenodo, ERIH+, and more)
• The strategic pathway toward Scopus and Web of Science

Inclusion in a national academic discovery system means:

• GMJ is now discoverable across Swiss universities and research institutions
• Content is accessible to a global network of researchers and clinicians
• The journal gains credibility within a highly trusted academic infrastructure

This is not only visibility — it is validation within a national research system.
