DOAJ launches its Best Practice Guide

DOAJ has launched the DOAJ Best Practice Guide. It is a web resource that provides selection criteria, resources and tools for the identification of reputable open access journals to support researchers, publishers and librarians in their search of best practice and transparency standards. The Guide complements the work of the DOAJ Ambassadors as well as academics, librarians and publishers worldwide. It is based on the information provided on the For Publishers page on the DOAJ website and the Principles of Transparency and Best Practice in Scholarly Publishing.
