Abstract

This study focused on the development of an Open Journal System (OJS) for advanced education in Eastern Visayas State University (EVSU) in the Philippines. It is a descriptive and causal-comparative type of research, concentrating on technological innovation of an open-access program as a platform for online publication of research outputs. Faculty members and students of the EVSU Graduate School, along with experts from international universities, served as respondents in the survey. The faculty members are much aware of the characteristics of Open Access Publications (OAP) while the students are aware how OAP are being implemented. The respondents are generally favorable that research issued in Open Access journals is becoming a norm in online publishing and consequently beneficial to the scholarly community. The implementation of OJS is often experienced by professors while students sometimes experience the way OJS enables the publication of researches from various disciplines. The EVSU-GS OJS was designed for the development of open access, peer-reviewed publishing, providing the technical infrastructure not only for the online presentation of journal articles, but also an entire editorial management workflow, including article submission, multiple rounds of peer-review, and indexing.
