The MTMT Repository Accreditation Committee has issued a certificate for the journal „Translation Studies”, which was launched by the Department of Translation and Interpreting Training at ELTE BTK in 1999. The journal aims to create a Hungarian-language, internationally significant professional forum in the field of translation studies, and has played a significant role in Hungarian translation studies over the past 25 years. Currently, 27 journals have such a certificate, 7 of which are affiliated with the ELTE Faculty of Humanities.

The Repository Certification Committee of the MTMT (Magyar Tudományos Művek Tára = Hungarian Science Bibliography – The database of Hungarian scientific publications) issued certificates to the Elpis Journal of Philosophical Sciences based on the submitted certification requests.

For publications and journals published in Hungarian and in Hungarian journals, the Committee of MTA did not support the use of the Norwegian list. More information can be found on the website of the MTA and in the document.
