Five more OA journals from Hindawi
From today’s announcement:
Hindawi Publishing Corporation is pleased to announce the addition of the following five journals to its Open Access journal collection:
- EURASIP Journal on Information Security
- International Journal of Plant Genomics
- Laser Chemistry
- Texture, Stress, and Microstructure
- VLSI Design
The first two journals are new launches, while the remaining three journals were previously published as subscription-based journals and are being re-launched using the Open Access model. All articles shall be distributed under the “Creative Commons Attribution License,” which permits unrestricted use, distribution, and reproduction in any medium, provided the original work is properly cited.
All back volumes of the “Laser Chemistry,” “Texture, Stress, and Microstructure,” and “VLSI Design” will be made freely available online. Some back volumes are already available, while the remaining volumes are being retro-digitized and will be made freely available as soon as the retro-digitization is complete.
Hindawi expects its Open Access journal collection to reach 60 titles by the end of 2006 and is planning further expansions in 2007.
PS: Kudos to Hindawi for another giant step forward.
