Open-Access Chemistry with Impact

In the last year or so, a number of new open-access titles have been launched or established journals flipped to an “author pay” model, dramatically changing the open-access publishing landscape within chemistry. It is worth noting that when ChemistryOpen began in 2011, it was the first open-access society-owned general chemistry journal. Since it started, ChemistryOpen has grown steadily, maintaining the high standards and aspirations expected of all the ChemPubSoc Europe (www.chempubsoc.eu) journals, which include Chemistry—A European Journal, ChemPlusChem, ChemSusChem, and a number of titles more specialist journals such as European Journal of Organic Chemistry, European Journal of Inorganic Chemistry, ChemPhysChem and ChemMedChem.
