Open Access Chemistry Journals
- Wiley Open AccessWiley Open Access is an initiative from Wiley to drive quality peer reviewed publishing with speed and efficiency through open access publication. All research articles published in Wiley Open Access journals are immediately freely available to read, download and share. The fully open access journals are published in collaboration with authoritative journals and societies as well as supported by internationally renowned editorial board members.
- Beilstein Institute Open Access journalsAll articles published in the Beilstein Journals are fully peer reviewed, to ensure their quality, originality, novelty and importance. Articles are freely available online worldwide immediately on publication, and are archived in public repositories. Authors retain the copyright to their work. The Beilstein Journals are supported by international editorial and advisory boards.
The DOI System
A DOI® name differs from commonly used Internet pointers to material such as the URL, because it identifies an object as a first-class entity, not simply the place where the object is located. The DOI System also differs from standard identifier registries such as the International Standard Book Number (ISBN), International Standard Recording Code (ISRC), etc., because it can be associated with defined services and is immediately actionable on a network.
From the DOI Fact Sheets
Newer Journal articles often provide the DIO at the top of the article.
DOIs can be searched in databases and in Goggle Scholar
