Year: 2026
Type: article
Abstract: Leslie H. Nicoll discusses the complexities of scholarly journal publishing, emphasizing the need to view journals as systems rather than mere labels like “predatory” or “legitimate.” This perspective fosters more meaningful conversations about journal operations and integrity, ultimately promoting a clearer understanding of their diverse functions within scholarly communication. The upcoming Journal Systems Framework will facilitate this approach.
