Polskie czasopisma otwarte w Directory of Open Access Journals – aplikowanie, indeksowanie i dobre praktyki

Directory of Open Access Journals (DOAJ) is the largest and authoritative international source of information about open journals. Polish open access journals are indexed there from the very beginning of DOAJ. In 2015, the catalog's editorial board prepared new guidelines for indexing journals. Consequence of this move was preparation of the new application and reapplication form. The article gives the review for the changes in all application forms that occurred since the beginning of DOAJ. It also contains most important guidelines for journals publishers and editorial boards who are applying to DOAJ according to new rules. Part of the paper is also devoted to good practices related to the openness of journals and scientific publications accepted in the DOAJ.
