What Are Open Access Journals?
Open access journals are electronic journals that are free for the public to use. They are often sponsored by organizations, associations or governments. You can always go to open access journals directly using an Internet browser, but the Libraries provide access points for you in the UNT Library Catalog and Electronic Resources to make you aware of the journals, and as a convenience.
