Below is a checklist based on our membership criteria to help applicants make sure they meet our requirements. Please read all of these points before you go through to the application form. If you have any queries please contact memberships@oaspa.org.
Information is available about OASPA, our application review process and membership categories.
Given the overlap in the screening criteria between the Directory of Open Access Journals (DOAJ) and OASPA, and that DOAJ is primarily an index of reputable open-access journals, we have agreed with DOAJ that all journal publishers applying to join OASPA will be first referred to DOAJ if they do not have at least one journal already listed in DOAJ.
