Today, after an extended period of consultation and development, DOAJ
launched a new and much extended form for journals wishing to be
included in the DOAJ.

Read the press release and access the form here:

The form has been structured to collect upfront from the publishers as
many quality indicators as possible about the journal. These
indicators will be assessed as part of a journal's application.

The form also introduces the DOAJ Seal, a mark of approval that shows
how a journal strives towards Best Practice.

Please get in touch should you have any questions.
