Starting the Ahead of Print releases

In addition to further developing the ethical and scientific qualities of the BrJP, one of the renovations aimed at indexing the journal to other platforms was applying the advanced publication modality or Ahead of Print (AOP)⁽¹⁾.

Since the beginning of May 2020, the advanced release of BrJP articles have been carried out, as this modality of publication is the most recommended for printed and online journals addressing the continuous sequential pagination of the articles.

The AOP format contributes a lot to the fast dissemination of the BrJP articles, allowing the results to be accessed earlier by the scientific community. The more rapidly articles are indexed at Scielo, the faster they are made available for the readers and can be quoted by authors⁽²⁾.

The advanced release of search results by the means of the AOP modality provided by Scielo makes this progress possible, minimizing the conditions that make it difficult to quickly access the platform’s journals search results, raising the duration of exposure of the articles.

The articles released in this advanced publication modality will be included in the BrJP editions to be published, maintaining the title, authors and the DOI number of the original AOP published article, respecting volume, number, pagination and date information, as well as the traditional journal’s punctuality.
