Enhance Journal Quality

The Diamond OA Standards DOAS  is a common quality framework for Diamond Open Access journals. It sets out guidelines for Diamond publishing and helps to ensure quality and transparency in the journal publishing processes.

DOAS provides guidelines and checklists to help enhance journal quality and prepare for the indexing process in the Directory of Open Access Journals (DOAJ) and the Diamond Discovery Hub (DDH).

The self-assessment tool is a good way for editors to measure compliance with the DOAS and sustainability parameters.
