Academic publisher SAGE has announced the launch of SAGE Open - a new publication to support open access publishing in the social and behavioural sciences and the humanities.
SAGE Open will publish peer-reviewed original research and review articles in an interactive, open access format. The journal will offer authors quick review and decision times; a speedy, continuous-publication format; and global distribution for their research via the SAGE Journals Online platform. The articles will also be guaranteed professional copyediting and typesetting.
The publication seeks to support the growing number of authors who require their articles to be freely available on publication. Unlike traditional journals, SAGE Open will not limit content due to page budgets or thematic significance. It will accept articles solely on the basis of the quality of the research, evaluating the scientific and research methods of each article for validity.
SAGE Open will also include several enhanced features to give readers greater power to determine the significance of articles published, with usage metrics, commenting features, subject categories, article ranking and recommendations.
