The present article, published during the celebration of the 40th anniversary of the Signo journal, created in 1975, has the aim of registering some aspects of the journal’s history over the last decade, from 2005 to 2015. In this period, one of the remarkable fact was the approval of the Post-Graduation in Letras Programe, of Unisc, whose first students' group started in 2005. The Signo journal, dedicated to publishing scientific articles in the área of Linguistic and Literature, was incorporated to the dynamic of the new graduation program and to the requirements of journal’s qualification of Qualis Capes. Another remarkable fact of the period was the transition from the printed format (ISSN 0101-1812) to the electronic format (ISSN 1982-2014), and the several consequent transformations, among them the interconnectivity between databases via index systems and the computational tools designed to identify and to give access to scientific journals, among of them the DOI - Digital Object Identifier. Finally, the article proposes to consider some of the challenges of the next decade, namely the process of internationalization, professionalization and sustainability.
