DOAJ Marks 2000th Journal
The Directory of Open Access Journals (DOAJ, http://www.doaj.org) now contains 2000 open access journals: quality controlled scientific and scholarly electronic journals that are freely available on the web. The goal of the DOAJ is to increase the visibility and accessibility of open access scholarly journals, and thereby promote their usage and impact. The directory aims to comprehensively cover all open access scholarly journals that use an appropriate quality control system. Journals in all languages and subject areas will be included in the DOAJ. The selection criteria have been updated based on feedback from users;
