Refreshed look for St Andrews journal hosting service

Kyle Brady
Monday 24 August 2015

Over the summer, the University Library’s journal hosting service has been given a bright new look to its welcome page.

As well as a fresh, more organised look to our range of journals, the main site provides users with the ability to search across all content.

An upgrade to the software means we can introduce additional features for readers such as citation tools, improved display of Creative Commons licences, and DOIs (coming soon).

Journal managers will be able to create their own reports on downloads, using the publishing industry standard ‘COUNTER’ statistics.

We are excited to continue providing this service which gives opportunities for our own staff and students to publish open access scholarly journals. We have also been working with an external hosting provider to trial an even better look and feel for one of our journals, still based on the underlying OJS software. Look out for more announcements soon!
