The Dutch newspaper De Volkskrant has recently published an article about the issue of predatory or fake Open Access journals. These journals are of poor quality and authors are tricked into submitting articles by aggressive marketing strategies and spam mails.
The Library's Open Access services will help you to assess the quality of an open access journal so that you can avoid being published in a predatory journal and get the recognition your research deserves.
