The American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS), the non-profit publisher of the Science family of journals, has announced the launch of Science Partner Journals, a program that will feature high-quality, online-only open access publications produced in collaboration with international research institutions, foundations, funders and societies.
Through these collaborations, AAAS expands its efforts to communicate science broadly and for the benefit of all people by providing top-tier international research organisations with the technology, visibility and publishing expertise that AAAS is uniquely positioned to offer as the world's largest international science society.
As a continuation of AAAS' commitment to open access publishing, Science Partner Journal content will publish under Creative Commons Attribution Licenses (CC BY), meaning that Science Partner Journal content will be freely available to all readers upon publication. To provide online publishing services for the Science Partner Journal program, AAAS has partnered with Hindawi.
Organisations participating in the Science Partner Journal program will be editorially independent and responsible for the content published in each journal. To oversee the publication process, each organisation will provide professional editors committed to best practices in peer review and author service.
New titles participating in the Science Partner Journal program will launch on a semi-annual basis and participation in the program is restricted to English-language publications. AAAS is actively seeking new partners across scientific disciplines.
