Q Open information

Special section for your EU project in Q Open
EU projects provide an excellent opportunity to publish a coherent set of articles. Q Open offers the possibility to publish such sets of articles as a special section in a regular issue. This way, your project results will be much better brought to the attention of other researchers and stakeholders. Also, by publishing your research in Q Open you will satisfy an important requirement of all EU funding in regard to Open Access and Open Science. Those interested in publishing a special section on their EU project in Q Open can contact the coordinating editor, Iain Fraser.

General information
Open access journal Q Open is making progress:
• We have been informed by Scopus that they have accepted Q Open for indexing. This is an important first step in being included in the major indexes and achieving an impact factor.
• We have a new manuscript transfer arrangement with the ERAE. Manuscripts submitted to the ERAE, but considered a better fit with the objectives of Q Open can now transferred directly for consideration for publication.
• Q Open is also well on track to reach key-performance indicators on growth in the number of manuscripts and in the turn-around time for review.
