Academic publisher SAGE and STM publisher Hindawi Publishing Corporation, US, have announced an agreement to jointly launch and publish a suite of fully open access (OA) journals.
The partnership will see equal ownership between the two organisations. SAGE will have sole responsibility for the editorial development, marketing, and promotion of the new journals. Hindawi will provide the technology and expertise needed to run the publication process from the point of submission, through the peer-review process, to the point of final publication. All SAGE-Hindawi journal articles will be made freely available online via the Hindawi platform, funded by author charges.
With this partnership SAGE is projected to become the largest academic publisher to develop a collection of Gold Open Access journals, marking the company's continued investment in widening access to key scholarly research. The initiative further strengthens Hindawi's leadership in developing a strong portfolio of OA journals. Hindawi currently publishes more than 100 OA journals covering a wide range of subjects in science, technology, and medicine.
