Comment on Criteria for Determining Predatory Open-Access Publishers by KB

0

Hi Jeffrey,

I appreciate your contributions to the vexing problem of how academics, and librarians, can meaningful distinguish among publishers and journals. As the number of Open Access publications continue to explode, these are precisely the types of discussions we need to be having.

My question is a practical one: have you applied your criteria to a universe of OA publishers, or at least to a large subset, in order to start making these distinctions? I find most trail off in naming “good” publishers after they finish listing usual suspects like PLoS and BioMed Central. To further ground this conversation, it would be great to see your views on which OA publishers are reputable (along with those that are not, as you’ve listed in previous blog posts).

Keep up the good work, thanks.
