The aim of this note is to communicate and explain the last additions included in the RESH website: an integrated evaluation system based on a diverse range of indicators on editorial quality, peer review, international visibility and impact index. The team developing RESH has been working on establishing a weighted system. This system assigns a different weight for each type of indicator thus enabling the construction of a journal ranking in each discipline or in each sub-discipline. Evaluators, authors or editors can find, in the cited website, the position of each journal in the context of its subject area, and the data justifying the final position of each journal.
