This EIFL webinar (55 min) shows how collaboration between the Directory of Open Access Journals (DOAJ) and the Public Knowledge Project (PKP), which developed OJS, can help increase the visibility of open access journal content.

DOAJ and PKP experts explain how clear journal information and policies help journals get indexed in DOAJ, why good metadata matters, and how OJS makes it easier for journals to meet DOAJ’s acceptance criteria. Useful plugins available in the OJS Plugin Gallery that can help automate tasks like sending metadata to DOAJ and registering Persistent Identifiers (PIDs) are also discussed, and we introduce the PKP Community Forum, a valuable resource for connecting with fellow open access publishers and learning from their experiences.
