This is a list of open-access journals by field. The list contains notable journals which have a policy of full open access. It does not include delayed open access journals, hybrid open access journals, or related collections or indexing services.
It was launched in 2003 with 300 open access journals. [2] The mission of DOAJ is to "increase the visibility, accessibility, reputation, usage and impact of quality, peer-reviewed, open access scholarly research journals globally, regardless of discipline, geography or language." [3]
It was founded in 2000 and launched its first journal, PLOS Biology, in October 2003. As of 2024, PLOS publishes 14 academic journals, [2] including 7 journals indexed within the Science Citation Index Expanded, and consequently 7 journals ranked with an impact factor. PLOS journals are included in the Directory of Open Access Journals (DOAJ).
Nature ' s impact factor, a measure of how many citations a journal generates in other works, was 42.778 in 2019 (as measured by Thomson ISI). [1] [35] [36] However, as with many journals, most papers receive far fewer citations than the impact factor would indicate. [37] Nature's journal impact factor carries a long tail. [38]
It is commonly used as a proxy for journal quality, expected research impact for articles submitted to that journal, and of researcher success. [201] [202] In subscription journals, impact factor correlates with overall citation count, however this correlation is not observed in gold OA journals. [203]
the number of times articles published in the journal during each of the most recent 10 years were cited by individual specific journals during the year (the twenty journals with the greatest number of citations are given) and several measures derived from these data for a given journal: its impact factor, immediacy index, etc.
The journal was established in 2011. [1] The journal states that their aim is to assess solely the scientific validity of a submitted paper, rather than its perceived importance, significance, or impact. [2] In September 2016, the journal became the largest in the world by number of articles, overtaking PLOS ONE. [3] [4] [5]
The charge to authors was initially free, then US$99, but from mid 2015 this went to $395. [4] By 2019 it was $480, followed by an increase to $800 later that year following the journal's acceptance into Web of Science. [5] As of 1 January 2023, the APC is $1,500. [5]
