New OA journal “forTEXT”

2024/06/26

“forTEXT” publishes first Call for Papers: “Text annotation in university teaching” – submissions until 30 September 2024. The new German open access journal “forTEXT” expands the “forTEXT Portal” project with a free publication platform.

The forTEXT journals are based on the concept of the forTEXT Portal, which has been systematically providing introductions to digital methods in the text-based humanities since 2017 and aims to disseminate digital humanities methods in research and teaching.
The journal is published with the Janeway editorial software. This infrastructure for Diamond Open Access is provided by the University and State Library Darmstadt (ULB).

Since the beginning of 2024, the content of the forTEXT portal has been made available on a monthly basis as a secondary publication. The first issue, which is made up of external submissions, will be published in spring 2025. In the first Call for Papers 2024, the journal invites submissions on the topic of text annotation in university teaching. Submissions are possible until 30 September 2024.

The ULB service TUjournals supports the publication of Diamond OA journals and series if at least one of the editors is a member of TU Darmstadt. Information on TUjournals and an overview of the titles published so far can be found on the website Journal Hosting .
