was published in <a href="http://www0.sun.ac.za/crest/?news=predatory-scholarly-publishing-south-africa">
SA Journal of Science</a> to report on what is happening in SA. The blog article below some suggestions on how to move forward. All involved in supporting research plays an important role to prevent predatory publishing from growing, across the research sector.
