The quality of open access journals – what do academic authors think?
ImprimirThe problem of low quality open access journals is overemphasized, writes Witold Kieńć, social media specialist at De Gryter, analysing the results of Key Challenges of Research Communication De Gruyter Open Author’s Survey. 67% of the respondents know a high quality open access journal dealing with their research topic. Authors who published more papers in the last 3 years than their average disciplinary colleagues are more likely to know a top-tier OA venue.
