- This is a list of open access overlay journals
- This list is still under development. Every part of it may change before the official launch, including its title, URL, and method of organization.
- An overlay journal is a type of OA journal that distributes its peer-reviewed articles through existing OA repositories. Some take their submissions from preprint repositories and some from direct author submissions.
- For real-time updates, some not yet reflected here, follow the oa.overlay tag of the Open Access Tracking Project. (This tag library is crowd-sourced, and you can make it more comprehensive by taking part in OATP.)
