Our Take

Latindex is the Ibero-American counterpart to DOAJ — the place to check whether a Latin American, Spanish, or Portuguese journal meets recognized editorial-quality criteria (its Catálogo applies a detailed checklist) and to discover regional titles. It’s a journal directory and quality signal rather than an article database. Use it to verify a regional journal’s standing before submitting or citing, and to find quality Ibero-American venues; pair with SciELO and Redalyc for the articles themselves.

Power Tips

  • Check a Latin American or Spanish journal against Latindex’s Catálogo before submitting or citing — meeting its criteria is a quality signal, as DOAJ inclusion is
  • use the directory to discover regional venues, then read the articles in SciELO or Redalyc.
