Dear All, Greeting. Of recent, there has been an explosion of FREE to access and PAY to publish business models in the STM domain. I have been observing a growing set of new metrics that are being put in place by the new business model publishers. Most importantly, various websites are publishing details of predator publishers and some names are quite common to all of us. Would appreciate to understand the stand of senior library professionals on the topic and what is the impact of such content on library budgets and research quality? warm regards SN -- This message has been scanned for viruses and dangerous content by MailScanner, and is believed to be clean.

Study of predatory journals
by D.V. Patwardhan 22 Oct '16

22 Oct '16

Sir, This has reference to your mail Lis-Forum dt.21st Oct.2016 on Study of predatory journals. Please my following opinions on this topic. with regards,D.V.Patwardhan "Predatory journals have emerged in OA environment. The authors have to pay for publishing their papers. As the publishers get payment to publish papers and wish lure authors to choose their medium, many times stringent quality restrictions not imposed on authors' output. If predatory journals publish quality articles then it is great contribution for scholarly or else they simply create pollution in scientific world."
