Summary:
Supporting Diamond journals in increasing the visibility of their open access output among research funders, institutions and consortia.
The integration plugin connecting Open Journal Systems (OJS) with the OA Switchboard is now compatible with OJS 3.5.0.x. Journals running OJS 3.5 can start using the plugin right away.
Once enabled, the plugin automatically sends a set of public article metadata to relevant research funders and institutions via the OA Switchboard when an article is published. The metadata is captured at the point of publication and shared with the institutions affiliated with the article’s authors and the funders supporting the underlying research.
This happens automatically, with no additional manual work required from the editorial team, helping diamond open access journals make their published research more visible to the organisations that fund and support it.
