Open-Access Journals/Series

GeoRef covers the following journals and series that are openly available on the web. Only journals and series that appear to provide stable open-access to current issues, have multiple issues available for use, and appear to plan to continue to be available in an open manner are included. Journals that require subscriptions to current issues are not included.
This list is updated frequently as availability of openly accessible publications grows.

The Open-Access Journals/Series list is divided into five sections:
