More than 100 scientific journals have disappeared from the Internet

More than 100 scientific journals have disappeared from the Internet



More than 100 journals online have vanished

Dozens of open-access journals — and many of the papers published in them — have disappeared from the Internet over the past two decades. Most of the 176 ‘vanished’ journals are in the humanities and social sciences. Journals can disappear for a number of reasons: the publisher might stop paying for the website, for example, and the pages might not be preserved in digital archives. The analysis also found 900 journals that are still online but have stopped publishing papers, making them vulnerable to disappearing in the near future.
