The role of digital content systems used in managing Arab academic scientific journals: An analytical study

Abstract

The current research aims to highlight the role of digital content management systems adopted in the management of Arab scientific journals and to indicate its features and characteristics. As well as learning about the available global systems for managing the digital content of scientific journals. The researchers adopted the descriptive approach to achieve the objectives of the research, and the questionnaire was a data collection tool. The questionnaire was distributed to a proportional random sample that included (30) researchers who use digital content management systems for three research sample sites with two journals for each site. The journals are from the OJS platform (Professor for Humanities and Social Sciences and Al-Kufa Journal of Mathematics and Computer), the ASJP platform (the Algerian Journal of Social and Human Sciences, and the Review of Scientific and Technical Information), and the ARID platform (ARID International Journal of Humanities and Social Sciences, and the Arad International Journal of Sciences and technology). The research data was presented in the form of tables and graphs and analyzed statistically based on several methods. The research came out with several results, the most important of which is that the Algerian scientific journals website management system (ASJP) represents the best system for researchers to manage journals from the two systems (OJS, ARID).
