DOAJ Directory of Open Access Journals
Membership Program and Option for Supporting Contributions

1. DOAJ Membership Program

Thanks to funding from Open Society Institute, The National Library of Sweden, SPARC, SPARC Europe and Axiell we have been able to operate, extend and improve the DOAJ over the last 3 years making the DOAJ the authoritative listing of peer-reviewed scholarly open access journals.

We need your support for the continuing operation and development of the DOAJ. In order to create a sustainable financial foundation for the continuing development and operation of DOAJ we now launch a membership program allowing individuals, universities, research centers, libraries, library organisation, library consortia, aggregators and other organisations to contribute.

Statement from Peter Suber in support of the membership program:

The Directory of Open Access Journals (DOAJ) is used by faculty around the world to find peer-reviewed journals where they can submit their work, as well as to find journals where they will have open access to the peer-reviewed research of colleagues. In these ways, the DOAJ enhances the value of open-access literature and helps connect authors and readers. Every institution that supports open access or researchers who support open access should support the DOAJ. I hope you will consider joining its membership program.

Statement from LIBER President Hans Geleijnse in support of the DOAJ Membership Program

The Directory of Open Access Journals is an important service for researchers and their libraries. Research results in various disciplines are available, easy accessible. The growth of the number of peer reviewed journals and articles over the years and the increase of usage encourage the Open Access movement and stimulate also the development of new business models for scholarly communication.

Lund University has done a very good job by managing and continuously improving this directory.

As President of LIBER, the Association of European Research Libraries, I would like to recommend libraries to support this work.
