6. Open Access – Plan S
Plan S, the funder-backed scheme to
require free online access to scientific
literature, aims to shake up the subscription
journals that have long dominated scholarly
publishing
Source
Plan S is an initiative for open-access
science publishing that was launched by
Science Europe on 4 September 2018.
It is an initiative of "cOAlition S", a
consortium launched by major national
research agencies and funders from twelve
European countries. The plan requires
scientists and researchers who benefit
from state-funded research organisations
and institutions to publish their work in
open repositories or in journals that are
available to all by 2021.

12. UJ Library: Open Journal System
WHY OPEN JOURNAL SYSTEM?
At the University of Johannesburg we support open access publishing and the dissemination
of information through open access platforms. Part of our mission at UJ Library is to support
research in any way that we can.
There are several journals that are loosely ‘housed’ at the university and the editors of
these journals are all faculty staff. The Open Journal System (OJS) is a digital platform on
which these journals, and any other journal that faculty members may be involved in, can
be hosted.
