Message from the Editor in Chief
We take up a responsibility for the academic society
Nowadays, we often need to pay expensive page
charges/open-access fees to publish our works as most of the journals
are now run by business publishers. Is it possible there are quality
assured, peer-reviewed and open-access SCI scientific journals, in
which colleagues can publish their research achievement free? We,
Biodiversity Research Center, Academia Sinica, Taiwan, attempts to take
up this responsibility. We run Zoological Studies, to provide a free
SCI open-access publication platform for colleagues to share out their
research achievements.
Publish articles free of page charges does not mean
Zoological Studies is lack of good quality. All the accepted articles
passed a formal review system. Impact factors is an indication for the
article citations in a journals and has implications for journal
quality. However, article citations can be also affected by the ways of
marketing methods for journals in commercial publishers. We are trying
hard to maintain a good impact factor for Zoological Studies. All
articles are 1) formally applied for a DOI number and being open-access
in the web, 2) listed and housed in PubMed database and 3) promoted in
our twitters and facebook. We are not under any umbrella of commercial
publishers. All the editors and reviewers are volunteers for the
academics. We hope you can support us to submit your quality works to
Zoological Studies, and upload your published articles in Research Gate
to enhance citations as well.
