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.
From 7th August 2018 onwards: 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, with immediate effect, all single journals that apply to OASPA will now be first referred to DOAJ if the journal is not already listed in DOAJ. More details can be found in our full announcement of this new agreement here.
