Pluto Journals and African Books Collective launched a pilot programme to support the publishing and distribution of a number of African academic journals.
The project aims to:
(1). Enhance the profile and discoverability of African journals
(2). Increase journal usage and submissions
(3). mobilise financial support from academic libraries and consortia.
The initiative will work with six established African social science and humanities journals annually. In the first year, the following are included:
Dhaxalreeb (Somaliland)
Zamani: A Journal of African Historical Studies (Tanzania)
Ibadan Sociology Journal (Nigeria)
Legon Journal of the Humanities (Ghana)
The Ethiopian Journal of Education (Ethiopia)
