NJSH – Case Study
Academic Journal Website & Online Submission System
Overview
The Nigerian Journal of Social Health (NJSH) needed a professional online platform where researchers could submit articles, undergo peer review, and have their work published. They wanted a system that was easy for editors to manage without requiring technical expertise, while still supporting academic publishing standards such as DOI integration.
The Problem
- No existing website or digital journal platform.
- No structured submission and review workflow.
- Editors were not familiar with managing a website.
- Hard for authors to find and submit their research.
The journal wanted visibility and submissions — but lacked the system to support them.
The Goal
Build a fully functional academic journal website that supports submissions, review workflow, publication, DOI assignment, and is easy for editors to manage independently.
The Solution
| Action | Why It Matters |
|---|---|
| Built Website with OJS Platform | Provides a structured submission & peer review workflow. |
