The Canadian Research Knowledge Network (CRKN) has announced the launch of the new CRKN Open Access Journals List. This list includes over 400 open access journals hosted at CRKN member institutions and covers a variety of disciplines.
According to Patricia Pang, Chair of CRKN’s Serials Management Sub-Committee, CRKN Open Access Journals List aims to improve the discoverability of Canadian open access journals. The list helps researchers discover and access reputable, peer-reviewed, open access scholarship through a trusted source.
Formerly managed through Simon Fraser University Library’s CUFTS software, the CRKN Open Access Journals List will be distributed to link resolvers to allow more researchers to retrieve open access content through library catalogues. The list is designed to supplement other open access lists and databases and provides a layer of review and reliability through regular additions and edits by librarians at local institutions.
