Twitter is a widely used social medium within academic circles. In short messages, researchers alert each other to new articles, findings, conferences, call for papers and more. This makes Twitter an ideal platform for scientific journals to collect copy, tip off interested parties about new publications and engage in a conversation with the readership. In addition to openjournals themselves, several OJ journals are also on twitter:
@Openjournalsnl
@Techregjournal
@BMGN_LCHR
@_tseg
@jhokjournal
@dujal_journal
@EMLC_journal
@ReliefRevue
@ReligieSoc
Openjournals also offers a personalized introduction into Twitter and the tools to get your journal hooked up to academic Twitter. Make an appointment for this by emailing info@openjournals.nl.
