[Irtalk] FW: [heligliasa] OJS at SA Universities for hosting scholarly journals

[Ina Smith]

Dear Colleagues

Well done to UWC as well! See their OJS installations:

JSAA - www.jsaa.ac.za/index.php/
CriSTAL - http://cristal.epubs.ac.za/index.php/

Hope we will have papers during the LIASA Conference on the role of libraries and scholarly publishing later this year. Please remember to submit your abstracts.

Kind regards
Ina

Subject: [heligliasa] OJS at SA Universities for hosting scholarly journals

Dear Ina

The University of the Western Cape library currently manages two journals on the OJS platform (Journal for Student Affairs in Africa [JSAA] and Critical studies in Teaching and Learning [CriSTAL]).

The two journals are available online at:
JSAA - www.jsaa.ac.za/index.php/
CriSTAL - http://cristal.epubs.ac.za/index.php/

Plans are underway to increase the number of journals using the OJS platform as well as an adaptation of the OJS platform for use other than journal publishing (still in the development phase).

Thank you for the opportunity to add our details and we look forward to contributing toward and learning much more about the use of OJS in South Africa.

Kind regards.
Mark Snyders
