Dear Colleagues
All most welcome to attend!
As indicated before, ASSAf SPU is in the process of rolling out Open Journal Systems (OJS)<https://pkp.sfu.ca/ojs/> for the hosting of SciELO SA<http://www.scielo.org.za/> journals in need of a web site and online journal management system. These journals will be digitally preserved via Portico<http://www.portico.org/digital-preservation/>. The following two journals are part of the pilot, and a third one will be following soon:
· South African Crime Quarterly<http://journals.assaf.org.za/index.php/sacq>
· Potchefstroom Electronic Law Journal<http://journals.assaf.org.za/index.php/per>
We are currently in the process of training journal editors and other role players. The main page for ASSAf journals is http://journals.assaf.org.za/
