Public access to academic papers and data has grown in recent years thanks to a growing number of open access journals. While there are still large differences in the availability of open access research across various scientific fields, the gaps are slowly narrowing.
Here, we provide a listing of the most influential open access journals as measured by 2012 SCImago Journal Ranks (SJR). SJR measures a journals visibility and influence within their scientific fields based on the number of citations received by journal and the influence of the studies which cite the journal (read more here). Here, we report the SJR quartiles, where 1 indicate a journal ranked in the field's highest quartile and 4 indicates a the lowest rank journals.
This list will be added to as we continue to assess the wide range of open access journals currently available.
