Free, open source software for open access journal publishing is available for those wishing to start up new journals, for example, the Open Journal Systems (OJS)[1] developed by the Public Knowledge Project[2] and HyperJournal[3] developed by volunteers, but now partially funded by the political science faculty of Pisa University[4]. While OJS and HyperJournal are designed for academic publishing, they can be used by anyone; there is a group of grade 8 girls in Vancouver, British Columbia, who use OJS to publish their own peer-reviewed journal.
