A call for support and access to scholarly content rose to the top of Reddit this afternoon. We thank all the Reddit users for showing their support for Science Commons and for Open Access (OA).

Academic Journals has listed 34 new journals that will go live in the next five months - all Open Access (OA), licensed under CC-BY.

Academic Journals publishes over 50 OA journals, ranging in topic area from the biomedical sciences to arts and humanities and legal studies. All works published by Academic Journals are under a CC-BY license - the least restrictive CC license. Each published work also involves a transfer of copyright to the publisher.

The first of these journals, the International Journal of Medicine and Medicinal Science is currently available. For a complete list of journals and their anticipated launch dates, visit Open Access News’ announcement. (Hat tip to OAN).
