There are many things to consider when choosing a venue to publish your work: you want to ensure a good fit, a broad reach, and significant impact.  Publishing in Open Access journals can be an effective way to retain rights over your work, comply with funder mandates, and increase the impact of your scholarship.  However, it is the responsibility of individual researchers to carefully evaluate the reputation of a journal and its publisher before submitting an article for publication, or agreeing to provide peer review services. This page features tools and guides to help you evaluate issues such as fit, impact factor, and reputability of scholarly journals.  Please also consult the predatory publishing page to ensure that you're submitting your work to a legitimate venue...."
