Description

The Library’s Open Journals service provides a hosting platform for academic and student-led journals to publish Open Access journals. All journals are accessible here: http://journals.ed.ac.uk  

All journals hosted by the Library are fully Open Access and use a Creative Commons licence.

Journals on the platform are published using Open Journal Systems (OJS). OJS is open source and used by at least 8,000 journals worldwide. It can be used to manage the editorial workflow from submission to publication and can support multiple languages.

The Library works with the Journal’s editorial team to customise the look and feel of the journal and provides training and support using OJS.
