OAP hosts Open Journal System for you.
OJS is the world’s most powerful and widely used open access publishing platform. OAP manages the web technology for you. Your journal is in the care of our experienced web professionals 24 hours a day. We maintain the hardware; we run the software. You run your journal. We’ll take care of the technology.
Editors configure requirements, sections, review process, etc.
After you set up your journal’s sections and submission requirements, the submission process is fully automated. Authors will know exactly how to submit their manuscripts directly to you through your OAP website. No more incomplete submission packets, no more emailing or mailing back and forth with authors. You set up your submission requirements and authors are required to follow them to your specifications.
Online submission and management of all content.
Once you set up your submission requirements, enter your reviewers’ contact information and areas of expertise–a one-time set up process–the submission process takes care of itself. You’ll receive new submissions and assign reviewers to them all with just a few mouse clicks.
Subscription module with delayed open access options.
You can make every issue of your journal open to all who want to use it, or you can restrict your newest issues to subscribers only, making them automatically available by open access after a time period you specify.
Comprehensive indexing of content part of global system.
Readers will be able to find your journals content by searching the web, not a dusty card catalog. Comprehensive indexing means your journal is easy to find and access, which means your journal will get wider readership and greater likelihood of citation.
Email notification and commenting ability for readers.
Your authors will be able to interact with readers in new ways. Readers can post comments on the articles posted in your online journal. When a comment is posted, the author can receive email notifications that readers want to converse about an article.
Complete context-sensitive online Help support.
With OAP, you won’t be left in the dark. We will walk you through the submission, review, and publication process. Our online knowledge base will show you how easy online publishing can be. If you need personal support, our friendly and knowledgable staff will walk you through the publication process over the phone until you’re comfortable holding the reins.
