From: Marie McVeigh <[log in to unmask]> Date: Thu, 20 Feb 2014 10:06:35 -0500 Of possible interest to this group - and cross-posted to Sigmetrics: Research Square announced that its Rubriq system of standardized peer-review will be used for journals published on QScience.com, the platform for the Bloomsbury Qatar Foundation. QScience hosts over 15 journals across a range of disciplines. Rubriq will supplement the review process for some established journals, but will entirely replace the management of peer review for QScience Connect. The journal Editors will rely on the Rubriq scorecard results, while retaining full responsibility for final publication decisions.
