The official Journal of ALPSP, Learned Publishing, is now on ScienceOpen!
A new partnership
As supporters of the Association of Learned & Professional Society Publishers (ALPSP), we are very excited to announce that the ALPSP’s publication, Learned Publishing, is now indexed in a Featured Collection on the ScienceOpen platform! Learned Publishing, published in collaboration with the Society for Scholarly Publishing, publishes peer reviewed original research, updates and informed opinions on all aspects of scholarly publishing. By being indexed on ScienceOpen, it is placed in the context of over 70 million scholarly publications and benefits from ScienceOpen’s rich discovery and networking tools.
It is hugely important that we ensure the greatest visibility for our authors’ content, and I am delighted to be working with ScienceOpen and to present our content on their platform.
