Elsevier conferences 2027

How Elsevier involvement actually works

Elsevier publishes conference material through journal special issues and, historically, the Procedia series. Several Procedia titles have been discontinued, so a call for papers referencing one is worth checking against the current catalogue. A special issue arrangement should name the journal and its ISSN.

What to check before you submit

• The journal or series named, with its ISSN
• Whether the Procedia title referenced is still active
• Special issue arrangements confirmed by the journal editor, not the conference
• Normal peer review, not acceptance on abstract alone

Verify against Elsevier journals rather than taking a conference website's word for it. Our guide to spotting predatory conferences covers the other warning signs.
