Journal Information

The journal was founded by the Saudi Spine Society in November 2021 by its Board of Directors, and an independent Journal of Spine Practice Editorial Board was established.

The Saudi Spine Society is committed to financially supporting the Journal. The views expressed in the journal are those of the authors and do not necessarily reflect the views of the Saudi Spine Society or the Journal of Spine Practice. 

JSP publishes three issues per year, and one of the three issues is dedicated to abstracts accepted in the annual scientific meeting of the Saudi Spine Society.


Long-Term Archiving

To preserve the scholarly literature published in electronic form and ensure that these materials remain available to future generations of scholars and researchers, KnE Publishing content is archived in Portico, a not-for-profit organization with a mission and singular focus to provide a permanent archive of electronic scholarly content.

Portico representative offices are located in New York, New Jersey, and Michigan.

The Journal of Spine Practice does not allow self-archiving of pre-print versions of the manuscripts unless mandated by the funding agency. This can be discussed on a case-by-case basis with the Editor-in-Chief. The Journal of Spine Practice allows the author to self-archive only the Publisher’s version of the manuscript in third-party repositories without embargo. The Journal’s Self-Archiving policy is deposited in the SHERPA/RoMEO database.
