Program Overview

Mission/Objectives:
Tidsskrift.dk is a service that ensures that Danish scientific journals can publish online. Tidsskrift.dk ensures that journals publishing in print can publish online and that new journals can be established online. The journals must be open access after one year. The journals must be related to a Danish university or a Danish research institution, a Danish museum, or a Danish scientific society. The journals must normally be peer reviewed, but we do accept other kinds of journals. For example, some of our journals are student journals where a researcher from the relevant university does the editorial process and not via anonymous peer review. Not all the journals are active. The Royal Danish Library does use the server to publish older inactive Danish journals in order to ensure an online presence of Danish scientific material. The Royal Danish Library only provide the platform, dissemination of metadata, and services like DOIs. The journals must handle the editorial workflow, peer review, typesetting, copyright issues, design etc.
