PRESS RELEASE/ANNOUNCEMENT

ONLINE GUIDE TO OPEN ACCESS JOURNALS PUBLISHING
LAUNCHES

5 February 2010, Stockholm & Lund:Co-Action Publishing and Lund University
Libraries Main Office are pleased to announce the launch of the Online
Guide to Open Access Journals
Publishing at http://www.doaj.org/bpguide.

The online guide is directed to small independent teams and provides
practical information
on planning, setting up, launching, publishing and managing an open access
scholarly journal. Users can take advantage of additional resources in the form
of links to related information, samples of applied practices and downloadable
tools that can be adapted. The guide seeks to be interactive, allowing users to
share their own best practices, tips and suggestions through a comment field.
Although the guide contains some information that is specific to the Nordic
region, most of its content can be applied internationally.

Development of the Online Guide to Open Access Journals Publishing was
generously supported by the Swedish National
Library and the technical solution was supported by Nordbib.

Questions about the guide can be directed to Caroline.Sutton at co-action.net
