New Journals Creation, Article Indexing and Maintenance Services for Colleges, Universities and Private Organizations
Transstellar helps colleges / institutions / universities to start their own journal and run them seamlessly so that University’s resources can be utilized effectively elsewhere. Starting a new scholarly journal can be a complex process. Many decisions have to be made before accepting submissions and publishing the first issue.
Transstellar considers and takes into consideration the following factors and finds answers before starting a new journal:
- What is the journal's purpose? What unique niche will it fill?
- What is the administrative structure of the journal? Editorial board? Advisory board?
- What standards will you use to judge articles for inclusion?
- Who will do copy editing and proofreading?
- What is the category / format of the journal? Print, online, or both?
- Is the journal going to be Open Access, available only by subscription, or a combination?
- Where is the journal going to be hosted / printed? Is there a Memorandum of Agreement (or Memorandum of Understanding) that spells out expectations for the journal and the host/printer?
- Who will obtain the journal's ISSN from the ISSN authorities?
- What are the terms for the journal's publication agreements with authors?
- How will the journal be funded initially? How will funding for the journal be sustained?
- How will you recruit peer reviewers?
- How will you solicit content?
- How will you advertise / promote your journal?
