CharonY Posted January 2, 2014 Share Posted January 2, 2014 There are quite a few of them. Do you mean open access? The main issue is to find one that fits the scope of your paper, however. Without knowing which area your work falls into it will not be terribly useful to list OA journals. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
imatfaal Posted January 5, 2014 Share Posted January 5, 2014 You should also be careful about your choice of open-access journal. Whilst some are superb projects which uphold the highest standards of academic work - others are complete travesties which exist solely to get publication fees from authors who don't know the ropes. http://scholarlyoa.com/ This is blog and website of Jeffrey Beall - a University Librarian in the USA. He compiles a list of open-access journals that are not quite what they seem; unfortunately lots of these journals are not part of a proper peer-review process and charge their authors a hefty fee before publishing only on the web. Before you sign over any cash make sure your journal of choice is not on any of the various lists of discredited open access journals. nb. there are some absolutely superb open-access journals - just make sure you get one of these and not a crook!

CharonY Posted January 6, 2014 Share Posted January 6, 2014 A good indicator if whether the journal is listed in the Thomsom indices and in the common databases pertinent to a given field (e.g. pubmed, but not google scholars). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
