The article outlines the ninth phase of the development of the journal “Studia Historiae Scientiarum” (previous name “Prace Komisji Historii Nauki PAU” / “Proceedings of the PAU Commission on the History of Science”).
Two basic ways of developing scientific journals have been distinguished: as a purely scientific enterprise or a purely business enterprise – the journal “Studia Historiae Scientiarum” follows the former model.
Information is provided on the following matters: the journal’s evaluation by the “ICI Master Journal List 2020” (released at the end of 2021), the evaluation by the Ministry of Education and Science of Poland (released on December 1 / 21, 2021), the evaluation by Scopus (released on 5 May 2022), and the evaluation by the SCImago Journal Rankings 2021 (based on the data from Scopus released on April 2022).
Additionally, the number of foreign authors and reviewers of the current volume of the journal is quoted.
From volume 21 (2022), the journal “Studia Historiae Scientiarum” has implemented additional organizational solutions: a CC BY license for the texts of articles (retaining the possibility of other licenses for illustrations), the CrossMark service and the publishing option, the so-called FirstView Articles.
