SCURL Shared Service & External Organisations

We offer a journal and book hosting service to SCURL partners and external organisations and institutions.

External Organisations

If your organisation or institution isn't a SCURL member, we may still be able to host your journal. An annual fee is charged. In particular, we will consider hosting:

• journals with a strong connection to Scotland, the University of Edinburgh or city of Edinburgh where there is a recognised benefit to the University or society as a whole in making the content openly available.
• journals in the field of librarianship, information management, research data management, open access or which support the work of professional services in higher education.
• journals where University of Edinburgh staff have been long standing members of the editorial board.
