Online first (OF) is the advance electronic publication of accepted articles that will be posted in upcoming issues. OF articles cannot be changed (including title, authors, etc.) or withdrawn (without regard to violation of publication ethics). Such an online publication differs from a traditional one in that it does not have fixed page numbers and is not tied to a specific journal issue. However, each such publication has a digital DOI identifier or EDN number for correct citation and is indexed by databases in the usual manner. That is, the article can be fully used in the lists of references and indicated in the reporting documents.
After the formation of the printed version of the volume, the missing information is added to the articles, but the URL address of the article and DOI or EDN number are not changed.
Advantages of Online First:
Reduces publication time
Provides quick access to the latest research results
Online First articles are posted in Russian and English as they are approved by the editor-in-chief and as the editorial process is completed.
When citing an Online First article, you must include the author's name, article title, journal title, year of publication, and DOI or EDN number. Example of the citation format:
