The Publish OA Directory of Irish Diamond OA Journals, a valuable resource for researchers, librarians, and anyone interested in open access publishing in Ireland, now lists 55 journals. This directory provides a comprehensive, searchable list of Irish Diamond Open Access (OA) Journals.

About the Directory

The information in this directory has been gathered from multiple sources, including:

  • The Directory of Open Access Journals (DOAJ)
  • The Irish Open Access Publishers (IOAP) website
  • Individual publisher websites
  • Library websites

The directory is presented as a searchable database, allowing users to filter journals by language, subject, publishing platform, DOAJ inclusion, and more. Additionally, a spreadsheet version is available for easy reference.

Both forms can be found via this link: https://publishoa-ie.moodlecloud.com/course/section.php?id=58

This initiative is a key step toward developing a ‘discovery layer’ for the Pilot National Diamond Publishing Platform, which aims to support and promote Irish Diamond Open Access Journals—whether they are independently hosted or part of a national platform.

This complements the Directory of Irish Publishers.
