Update of the tool "On NO Publicar"
On no publicar aims to help in the identification and analysis of potentially fraudulent journals in Health Sciences. Developed by the Biblioteca de Ciències de la Salut, it offers a compilation of journals in the health area with documented dubious or outright fraudulent editorial practices.
In this latest update, 1,119 journals have been identified, 37 of which are new additions. It also presents the following changes:
- A new source has been included for the base list, the blacklist New List of predatory journals - 2023.
- Some sources (ICMJE, JournalGuide, JournalTOCs) that were used for quality verification have been eliminated, either because they have been discontinued, have become subscription sources or because they are no longer considered relevant.
The instructions for use are available from the same tool. You can also consult the guide on editorial fraud, prepared by the Servei de Biblioteques i Documentació, for more information on this type of journals.
