This seal, joint initiative of ANECA and UNE (Union of Spanish University Publishers) accredits the scientific and editorial quality of this collection after being evaluated following rigorous quality parameters (this year only 4 collections have been positively evaluated).

chaired by the director of this agency, José Arnáez Vadillo.
