Launch of the ‘Subscribe to Open’ (S2O) Label

"We’re thrilled to share a significant milestone at DOAJ: as of March 6th, 2024, we’ve introduced journal labels as a new feature in our metadata. This marks an exciting development, allowing us to tag journals with specific labels that reflect their unique characteristics.

The first label we’ve gone live with is for the Subscribe to Open (S2O) model. This is a big step for us as we continue to support open access and the evolving landscape of scholarly publishing....

We are also exploring other labels that might be of use to the community. Some examples we are considering are: Diamond, Flipped journals, Mirror journals, preserved via JASPER. If you have an idea for a label, please get in touch...."
