Bloomsbury Qatar Foundation Journals (BQFJ) has announced the launch of Tassmeem on QScience.com, the digital publishing portal for research journals. Tassmeem is a new, peer-reviewed, open-access, international design journal that provides a multi-modal forum for the exchange of ideas and findings on all aspects of creative research. All content in the journal will be 'open access', meaning they are free-to-read on the web and authors retain copyright on their works.
The journal seeks to publish high quality, thought-provoking, original research that engages in the evolving scholarship of design. It will cover areas such as creativity and innovation, design education and pedagogy, design theory, criticism and history, sustainability, applied design, design methodology, interdisciplinary design, experimental design, the practice of design and global/local design.
QScience.com's advanced technology makes research findings readily accessible and searchable using multimedia functionalities to support text, data, audio and video formats. It is also the first scholarly research platform to make journal abstracts available in both English and Arabic.
QScience.com already hosts six scholarly journals covering diverse subject areas such as cardiology, information & library studies, sustainable energy, education, Middle Eastern healthcare and Islamic studies. Many other journals are scheduled to be added in 2011.
