Other publishers

Source and method. Journals and their publisher, impact factor*, open access status and APC come from OpenAlex open data and DOAJ (journal_metrics.csv, updated 2026-10-17); only journals in at least one of the SCIE, SSCI, AHCI, ESCI or Scopus lists are counted. Imprints and spelling variants of the same publisher are combined. ScholarsColab is not affiliated with Berghahn Books.
