The Journal’s primary indexing in the HeinOnline Law Journal Library places it within the subscriber network of 1000+ libraries, universities, government institutions, courts, and organizations worldwide. Please note that indexing applies to the journal as a whole. Inclusion of individual papers depends on the policies of each database. The indexing status of individual papers may vary, and the timing of their inclusion in these databases is beyond our control.

IJLMH is a Crossref member with the DOI prefix 10.63108. Every paper receives a Crossref DOI at no cost to the author, and the full reference list of every paper is deposited with Crossref. IJLMH was the first privately run Indian law journal to institute a free-DOI policy.
IJLMH is catalogued and discoverable through library systems at major institutions across the United States, United Kingdom, Canada, Australia, Europe, and beyond. Published research in IJLMH is accessible through the library discovery systems and journal subscriptions maintained by subscribing institutions, in addition to the open access website. Manuscripts are catalogued and searchable through institutional search platforms at member universities, making them discoverable by researchers, practitioners and policymakers across jurisdictions.

Article metadata is exposed through an OAI-PMH 2.0 endpoint registered with the Open Archives Initiative, and full text is produced in JATS XML alongside PDF and HTML, the formats indexing services and preservation archives rely on. Every article page carries complete Highwire citation tags for Google Scholar.
Indexing services work in two ways.
Some list the journal itself. Directories, catalogues and journal-evaluation services record the journal’s title, ISSN and details. They do not list individual articles, so an article will not appear in them by name.
Others list articles. Each of these services decides independently whether and when to include an individual article, on its own schedule, and the journal has no role in that decision.
For every article, the journal provides what these services rely on: a Crossref DOI, complete citation metadata on the article page, an OAI-PMH record, and deposit with its indexing partners.
Google Scholar finds articles by crawling the web. A new article usually appears within a few weeks to a few months, though Google Scholar does not guarantee inclusion. To check, search for the article’s full title in quotation marks at scholar.google.com.
HeinOnline, Manupatra and other databases add issues in batches on their own release schedules. These can be long and vary from service to service.
To cite or share your article, use its DOI link (https://doi.org/10.63108/…). It works from the day of publication and always leads to the article. Authors with a Google Scholar profile can also add their article using “Add article manually”.
Manuscripts are considered throughout the year and published on a rolling basis, through the online submission system or by email to submission@ijlmh.com. No charge applies at submission; the processing charge applies only on acceptance.
