Tiers and journals Jane Binksma 07 Sep 2006 18:52 UTC

Hello all,

Can anyone point me to a document that will define the process by which
journals are designated with a tier (i.e. tier one, tier two etc.)?  Or,
could anyone please enlighten me about this ranking?  I am having a hard
time finding any sort of concrete definition or explanation.  Is this a
standard?  If so, who applies it and manages it?

Thanks for any insight,

Jane
