#DOAJ is partnering with German Research Foundation (DFG) @dfg_public to raise the visibility of German #OpenAccess journals, particularly #DiamondOA journals and those funded by the DFG.

All details at https://blog.doaj.org/2025/05/05/doaj-and-dfg-join-forces-to-boost-diamond-open-access-journals-in-germany/

Die DFG hat zum 1. Mai ein Service Agreement mit dem "Directory of Open Access Journals" #DOAJ geschlossen (int. Verzeichnis qualitätsgesicherter #OpenAccess-Zeitschriften). Damit soll u.a. die Sichtbarkeit von deutschen OA-Zeitschriften verbessert werden, insbes. von Diamond-Open-Access- und DFG-geförderten Zeitschriften.

Das Agreement startet zeitgleich mit der Servicestelle für Diamond Open Access (SeDOA) und sieht eine Zusammenarbeit von SeDOA und DOAJ vor.
