Abstract
It gives me great pleasure to present this brief introduction to our 2023 issue of JOVACET, now in its sixth year of publication and seeking to increase its footprint with each passing year. To illustrate these endeavours, this year saw JOVACET being accepted on two more platforms: the first is the Directory of Open Access Journals (DOAJ), and, more recently, our journal has joined the Scientific Electronic Library Online (SciELO), an open-access searchable database that is managed in South Africa by the Academy of Science of South Africa (ASSAf ), is funded by the South African Department of Science and Technology (DST), and has the endorsement of the South African Department of Higher Education and Training (DHET; see https://www.scielo.org.za for more information about the broader SciELO initiative). As part of the conditions of the SciELO listing, journals are required to publish individual articles on the platform for online access in advance of the completed journal being published. This was a new challenge for JOVACET, as we had not experimented with this requirement previously, and it meant putting some pressure on our time frames for reviewing and editing (so ably managed by Dr Catherine Robertson) so that at least one article could be published as a stand-alone that would also be included in the full journal for this year.
