“…In 2017, Zebulin Evelhoch, Sean Lind, and Martin Bagaya studied the inclusion of DOAJ titles in commercial databases, reporting that the number had increased over previous findings but was still limited, with Scopus indexing 29 percent of these titles, Academic Search Complete 19 percent, and Web of Science 11 percent. 17 Only one study discussed the indexing of disability studies journals. This 2015 article by Nancy Herther primarily focused on citation analysis and keyword searches, but also briefly investigated the amount of database indexing for a collection of 11 journals highly cited in disability studies dissertations.…”

There are currently no databases dedicated to indexing the research literature for disability studies. To identify which databases have more robust indexing of the literature of this field, the author compiled a list of relevant journals and searched for them in databases either frequently recommended in libraries' disability studies research guides or indicated by Ulrich's data to index a high number of the journals. Notable disconnects were found between frequently recommended databases and those with substantial indexing of disability studies journals. Challenges for research in this field were also encountered and documented, including inadequate indexing, particularly for open access journals.
