Scholarly Research Exchange: a new open access journal employing a
transparent peer review system
Press Release
February 21, 2008
Hindawi Publishing Corporation is pleased to announce the launch of
Scholarly Research Exchange, a peer-reviewed, open access journal that
publishes original research articles in all areas of science, technology,
and medicine. Scholarly Research Exchange will bring a number of important
innovations to scholarly journal publishing, including a transparent peer
review system in which authors and reviewers interact directly throughout
the peer review process.
Authors submitting to Scholarly Research Exchange will suggest potential
reviewers who will have to be approved by the journal's Editorial Office.
Reviewers will be asked to provide an assessment of the quality of the
manuscript, a written critique addressed to the authors, and a written
commentary addressed to the journal's readers. Once an article is accepted
for publication, the reviewers' commentaries and their assessment of the
manuscript's quality are published alongside the final version of the
article. In addition to these reviewers' evaluations, members of the
scientific community will also be able to participate in a discussion
around every manuscript.
"Scholarly Research Exchange goes well beyond the current journal model and
brings a number of new ideas to the scholarly publishing industry," said
Ahmed Hindawi, the company's CEO. "It provides a truly different experience
to authors and reviewers, and since it is highly scalable by its very
nature, it has the potential to make a significant impact across all areas
of STM publishing."
Scholarly Research Exchange is hosted on a custom built online platform,
which is located at http://www.syrexe.com/, facilitating the journal's
interactive editorial system. The journal is published with the support of
an international Advisory Board, and a detailed description of the journal
and its editorial model can be found on the journal web site.
