EIFL Guide: Quality in Diamond open access publishing

peter.suber's bookmarks 2025-10-23

Summary:

"This guidelines document is designed to support Diamond open access (OA) journal publishers to enhance the quality and credibility of their journals, and to encourage alignment with established best practices in scholarly publishing.

The guide builds on recognized frameworks such as the Basic Criteria for indexing in the Directory of Open Access Journals, as well as the Best Practices Checklist for Diamond OA Publishers and the Diamond Open Access Standard (DOAS) developed by the DIAMAS project, where EIFL is a partner. 

Although not exhaustive, the guide offers a solid foundation for journals looking to improve operations. "
