Within library catalogues, users are perhaps seeing a 404 message. On DOAJ itself, users are noticing that the article content included in DOAJ is much changed and reduced. Why is this?<\/p>\n<p>Hopefully it is <a href=\"https:\/\/blog.doaj.org\/es\/2016\/12\/23\/update-on-reapplications-and-new-applications\/\">old news<\/a> to you now that DOAJ has been undertaking its <a href=\"https:\/\/blog.doaj.org\/es\/2016\/03\/30\/final-call-journal-reapplications-to-doaj-close-31-march\/\">Reapplication project<\/a>. Over the last 6 months, the DOAJ Team has made a final, huge push to process all the reapplications. This project is so very nearly complete: out of the 6359 reapplications submitted to us, only a handful are still to be re-checked. 2072 of the reapplications did not pass our new standards. This means that the range of journals in DOAJ has changed considerably; very quickly over a relatively short period of time.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Aggregators \/ Service Providers \/ Library Catalogue administrators<\/strong>: we strongly advise you to re-index \/ update \/ download again the DOAJ article metadata offering\u2014via <a href=\"https:\/\/doaj.org\/features\">OAI-PMH<\/a>, or our <a href=\"https:\/\/doaj.org\/api\/v1\/docs\">API<\/a>\u2014so that your catalogues have the most up-to-date version of our index.
