خلاصة:
Journals that are published in a completely electronic manner indicate innovation in the ways of exchanging scientific information in the research community. The particular importance of the subject lies in the instability of materials in electronic forms and their creative use. The establishment of purely electronic journals in scientific information systems, their indexing in important indexing centers, their appearance in library catalogs, and their use by other researchers requires the passage of time. This article is a survey regarding the current position of purely electronic journals in the information system.

For purely electronic journals to establish themselves in scientific information systems, they need time for their indexing in important indexing centers, their appearance in library catalogs, and their use by other researchers.
Keywords: Electronic journals 7, purely electronic journals, indexing, cataloging, citation analysis, scientific communication Introduction The use of printed journals has been prevalent for several centuries, and during this time, these journals have been involved in their activities in specific ways.
Access to printed articles has long been possible through various means and different methods; some of these methods include: the use of various public and specialized indexes, library catalogs, citations or reference lists of other articles, and recommendations from readers and colleagues.
The theory of study states that if purely electronic journals want to become part of the traditional scientific research system, they must be included in large scientific indexes along with other journal articles, be placed in library catalogs, and be cited by authors in research journals.
, it was decided that the present study would examine purely electronic journals that meet the following criteria: - Currently being published, - Having a peer-review board, - Their original publication is in electronic format, - Have a research focus; - Have an archive of 2 to 3 years (at least 20 articles) available, - Include articles in the English language, - Do not have a subscription fee.
