Update. I'm very glad to see the #DOAJ endorse the #PKP "Publication Facts" label.
https://blog.doaj.org/2026/04/22/introducing-the-publication-facts-label-another-tool-in-your-research-integrity-toolkit/

I hope this nudges more publishers to use the labels. In any case, it should lead more readers to expect publishers to use them.

@fragdenstaat

Der Artikel spricht wichtige Punkte an, übergeht aber komplett, dass es längst eine gut etablierte Alternative zu dieser Art von Open Access gibt, bei der große Unternehmen hohe Publikationsgebühren erheben (= Gold Open Access).

Diese Alternative ist Diamond Open Access: die Publikationsinfrastruktur wird institutionell getragen, die Journals werden wissenschaftsgeleitet publiziert und es gibt keine Gebühren.

75% der Zeitschriften im DOAJ sind Diamond OA!

🔸Do you work with #OpenAccess journals? Are you setting up a new journal? Are you training a team?

🔸The OA Journals Toolkit should be your start point: https://oajournals-toolkit.org

Another significant milestone for #DOAJ

🇪🇸 We’ve now indexed just over 1000 journals from Spain

Thanks to the community who make this possible: our DOAJ team, Ambassadors, volunteer editors, supporters - and of course, all the journals that are and apply to be indexed
#BestPractice #OpenAccess #Spain

Web scraping to train #LLMs has surged in the past few years, overwhelming #OpenAccess infrastructures like #DOAJ with bot traffic.

DOAJ Platform Manager Brendan O'Connell discusses how we’re responding to these challenges.

Cet argumentaire pourra servir de support pour convaincre les chercheurs et les personnels d'édition impliqués dans une revue diamant de la référencer dans le Directory of Open Access Journal (@DOAJ). Sans être exhaustif, le document rassemble des arguments techniques, politiques et éthiques empruntés à des sources multiples. Le DOAJ constitue un atout pour la visibilité des revues, un argument pour les financeurs et un gage de qualité qui en font un système d'information incontournable pour signaler une revue dans le paysage de l'édition scientifique ouverte.
