[WEB4LIB] Re: Free and/or OA journals in librarianship

[Sarah L. Shreeves]

If you browse through the UIUC Experimental OAI Registry 
(http://oai.grainger.uiuc.edu/registry/) you can find some open access 
journals with OAI data providers (see below for a few examples. 
Unfortunately there's not a good systematic way to search the OAI registry 
for Open Access journals.) It's interesting to note that several of the 
ones that I found are using the Public Knowledge Project Open Journal 
System (see http://www.pkp.ubc.ca/ojs/) which comes packaged with an OAI 
data provider.

Also, UIUC is working with UIC and First Monday to set up an OAI data 
provider for article-level metadata.
