crl-16169	Walters, William H.; Linvill, Anne C.	Characteristics of Open Access Journals in Six Subject Areas	2011	21	.pdf	application/pdf	9647	413	53	There is great variation in the size of OA journals; the largest publishes more than 2,700 articles per year, but half publish 25 or fewer. For example, 27 percent of the 174 journals in the Web of Science general medicine and research medicine categories are Open Access, and another 14 percent are hybrid journals that provide free access after an embargo period or for certain types of articles.2 From September 2004 to August 2010, the number of titles listed in the Directory of Open Access Journals (DOAJ) rose from 1,250 to more than 5,200.3 However, other evidence suggests that the number of new OA journals introduced each year has declined since its peak in 2001.4 In any case, OA journals appear to be growing in importance among college and university faculty.	cache/crl-16169.pdf	txt/crl-16169.txt
