The TSV Board has appointed the Steering Group of the Publication Forum for the period 2024-2027.

The Publication Forum panels decided to downgrade 220 level 1 publication channels to level 0 from the beginning of 2024.

The research community has an opportunity to propose the most prestigious book series from level 2 book publishers to level 3.

In 2022, the Publication Forum expert panels carried out a re-evaluation of JUFO levels 2 and 3. This report describes the implementation and main features of the 2023 classification.

The report examines the international context and organisation of the JUFO classification, the characteristics of JUFO levels as a quality indicator of universities’ publishing performance, and the trends of scholarly publishing in Finland.

The Steering Group of the Publication Forum has updated the user guide for the Publication Forum classification. The user guide contains recommendations on the responsible use of the classification.
