>     gathering of data. Another is that non-English journals are likely to
>     be underrepresented in all the available indexes, including the DOAJ.

>     Countries which interest us in particular are: Canada, Most European
>     countries (except the UK) and including Russia, Francophone countries
>     in Africa, Middle East and Asian Countries.

>     We will use three ways to contact volunteers who can help us:
>
>     Contact with the management of DOAJ and its voluntary editorial staff
>     An email to The Global Open Access List (GOAL)
>     Direct e-mail to people we know
