Free Access to Quality Research: Open Access Journals List 2024

Are you looking for a list of free open access publishing? Then you are in the right place.

Here, we provide an updated list of scholarly, peer-reviewed Gold, Green, and Hybrid Open Access Journals.

Before driving to list let's tawk about what are the academic open access journals.

What is open access?

Open access means that research articles are freely available online to anyone, without any paywalls or restrictions.

This means that anyone can read, download, copy, distribute, print, and adapt the article for any non-commercial purpose under creative commons license.

It aims to make research more accessible to everyone (Free-to-read journals), including researchers, students, and the general public, promoting wider dissemination of knowledge and supporting scientific progress.
