In September last year, we launched and published our revised publisher supporter model. This model, which we shared openly on our website for the first time, reflects our commitment to transparency through the Principles of Open Scholarly Infrastructure. Although the largest proportion of our support comes from libraries and institutions, we also rely on our publisher supporters so that we can continue to maintain and develop our service and have a positive impact on the wider scholarly journals community.
We are delighted that these publishers have signed up to our new model to contribute to our operating costs for 2024, and are grateful for their support: ACS Publications, AOSIS, American Psychological Association, Cambridge University Press, Cappelen Damm Akademisk, Copernicus Publications, eLife, Elsevier, Emerald Publishing, Frontiers, IEEE, IET, IUCN, Karger, KEAI, MDPI, PLOS, Royal Society of Chemistry, Sage Publishing, SciELO, SpringerNature, Taylor & Francis, Tsinghua University Press, Ubiquity Press and Wiley.
As a reminder, all applications to DOAJ are reviewed to the same standards, regardless of whether the publisher of a journal is a DOAJ supporter.
We are proud of the diversity of the DOAJ index, and are keen to reflect this in the profile of our publisher supporters. Our new non-commercial/institutional publisher rates enable support from community-led platforms, and allow them to demonstrate their investment in shared community infrastructure.
We are therefore particularly proud to welcome Érudit as a new supporter at our institutional publisher rates. Érudit is a long-term partner of DOAJ, and an important contributor to diverse scholarly publishing in Canada. We hope their support will encourage similar platforms and services to do the same.
If you’re a publisher that benefits from the quality assurance and visibility indexing DOAJ provides for your journals, please consider supporting us.
