ROAD (Directory of Open Access Scholarly Resources), a database containing scientific journals, conference proceedings, monographic series and academic repositories in open access, is a new project of the ISSN International Centre launched with the support of UNESCO. It has been publicly accessible since the beginning of 2014. The main purpose of ROAD is to enable access to all freely available scientific serial publications in one place, provide insight into the quality of open access scientific resources and academic research output and introduce new ways of using the ISSN.

Its resources may be searched by different criteria and records may be taken over in the MARC XML format. From among 1.7 million bibliographic records in 150 languages from more than 200 countries contained in the ISSN Register, ROAD has so far taken over 8598 bibliographic records of open access serial publications ..."
