Abstract:Against the backdrop of the deepening open access movement, the efficiency of OA literature discovery and access has become a key link in academic dissemination. Journal of Vocational Education (ISSN 3080-8049, eISSN 3080-8057, CODEN: ZDABBU, DOI prefix: https://doi.org/10.66106/zdabbu, Import Registration Number: G015Z109), a gold open-access Chinese-language bimonthly journal published by Quest Press Limited, has recently been officially indexed by J-Gate. Developed and operated by Informatics India, J-Gate is one of the world's largest open access journal portals, indexing over 13,000 open access journals from more than 130 countries and over 60 million OA articles, covering multiple fields such as science, technology, medicine, and humanities. As a key infrastructure for global OA literature discovery, J-Gate provides researchers with a convenient one-stop channel for accessing open access scholarly resources. The journal positions itself as an“ academic hub and innovative practice platform for industry-education integration research.” All accepted articles undergo rigorous international peer review and are published under the CC BY 4.0 license, making them permanently and freely accessible. Being indexed by J-Gate will allow the journal's open access papers to enter the global OA literature discovery network, significantly enhancing the visibility and accessibility of vocational education research outputs. This article, taking into account the journal's positioning, analyzes the practical value of this indexing.
