At the start of 2014 the Open Access Scholarly Publishers Association
(OASPA), the Committee on Publication Ethics (COPE), the Directory of
Open Access Journals (DOAJ) and the World Association of Medical
Editors (WAME) published a minimum set of criteria for journals and
publishers to be assessed against when they apply for membership at
one of our organizations.

On behalf of the above organizations I am pleased to announce that the
joint principles have now been revised and the full updated criteria
can be found on the website of each organization.

For further information see:

Feedback is welcome.
