Open Access Directory
The Open Access Directory (OAD) is a compendium of simple factual lists about open access (OA) to science and scholarship, maintained by the OA community at large. By bringing many OA-related lists together in one place, OAD makes it easier for everyone to discover them and use them for reference. The easier they are to maintain and discover, the more effectively they can spread useful, accurate information about OA. To see what they have just browse the table of contents below, browse the table of categories, or use the search box in the left sidebar. To help the cause, just register and start editing. If still user have any questions, their help section or drop us a line.
OAD is hosted by the Graduate School of Library and Information Science at Simmons College and supervised by an independent editorial board.
