Comments for Scholarly Open Access

The tool TinEye (www.tineye.com) is quite good at determining which pictures are stock fotos or from the Wikimedia Commons.

Yantyati, the publishers of both of those journals are on my list. I recommend that you not submit your work to these two journals and instead find a better publisher to work with. Good luck.

@samir_sharma: Why don’t you teach younger generation that this is a wrong culture? There is a competition between countries to be on the top as publishing online journals, I suspect.

Thank you Jeffrey Beall, is the Global Institute for Research and Education journals in that list?

Mark:

I have analyzed this journal and added it to my list. Thanks.

Sorry — I don’t know.

Dear Jeffery
Kindly provide me genuine international journal list asap…urgent!

hi Dr. Jeffrey Beall
Today I came across a article published in the guardian magazine and it was written by a scientist who expressed his reservations about some reputed journals like nature and science. I hope it would be a good read for all researchers.
Kindly click on the following link to reach the article

Waiting for your response
Dr.Rao

You should be ashamed of what you have been writing here.Elnaschie published last year alone 45 papers in 15 different journals of five different publishers. could you match him or are you work only the gossiebing and defamation industry

I do not compile such a list.

Right, he has an interest in one publisher, so he is trashing the competition.

dear author[s] this publication is a welcome development for those of us that are budding writers in the African continent,i wish this can be sent to more colleges and universities in Africa for purpose of academic reappraisal thanks

Dear Jeffrey,
Thank you for your information. However, both journals are not in the list of ‘standalone journals’. Would you please give any comment of this situation, since we have published our papers on those journals. Regards, yantyati

Hello Beall
You did a great job for the scholars worldwide. What about TRANSSTELLAR and American International Journal of Contemporary Research?
Can you please suggest me some authentic international journals of English language and literature?

Jamila,

Trans Stellar (Transstellar) is included on my list here: http://scholarlyoa.com/publishers/

The American International Journal of Contemporary Research (AIJCR) is included on my list here: http://scholarlyoa.com/individual-journals/ I would recommend that you not submit your work to this publisher and this journal and instead find better ones.

Right, they are not on the standalone journals list because they are not standalone journals. The publishers are on the publishers list, and I do my analyses at the publisher level whenever possible, for there are too many individual journals. If you have already published in the journals, it’s too late, and I would recommend finding a better quality journal for your next paper.

Well, one of the reasons is that the journal does not provide information about its location on the ‘contact us’ page. Where is this journal based? Do you know? Why are they being non-transparent about this? The journal’s broad scope is also problematic, for it appears that they want to be a megajournal for EE but I don’t think scholars will benefit much from submitting there work here. There are already many broad EE journals.

Indeed, before I find your list I submited a paper to them but I did not hear anything up to now. Besides no contacts are available. Let me ask you something more. Since I submited the paper to them and they did not published it yet, can I submit it to another journal without having troubles? What do you suggest in these situations?
Once more thank you so much!
