Valley International Journals

From the Aboiut Us page (6/10/18): "Valley International are open access journals Publisher covering a wide range of academic areas. VIJ serves the world’s research and intellectual community... ." The address on the contact page is LIG 73 Megdoot Nagar Mandsaur, (M.P.) India - 458001.

At the moment, only two journals are listed. THEIJSSHI, as it is abbreviated, includes works such as "The Influence of Regulation Policy in Local Wisdom of Coastal Fisherman Welfare in Percut Sei Tuan Subdistrictdeli Serdangregency." If there is an editor-in-chief, that person is not part of the "editorial team."

The team includes "Wayne Marr, Professor, Business Administration, University of Alaska at Fairbanks, Fairbanks, ALASKA." Linkedin identifies him as the university's Vice Chancellor. The Chronicle of Higher Education lists his "current work" as "Retirement." As with THEIJSSHI, he is the only American on the editorial advisory board of the International Journal of Business & Management (published by the International Institute of Social and Economic Sciences), which boasts "Plagiarism Tolerance: Zero Level" as it "ascends a maiden flight across the globe."

Biocore

Biocore is on Beall's list of predatory journals, and it not hard to see why. Its web pages explain that: ⊘ "Biocore motto is to give the human era with better future. This can be achieved with our renowned editors, authors and reviewers with their exchanged views and knowledge." ⊘ "Biocore has been involved the knowledge on Science & technology to the access way of every individual." ⊘ "With the Open Access evolution, we are making the genuine and trustworthy contributions to the scientific environment without stopping the access to the readers for reading or even downloading the published papers/articles." ⊘ "[A]ll the eminent personalities can search our database." ⊘ "With the Editorial Board Members of 600, the number is increasing with the volume ... ." And if you are interested in travel (to Dubai at least), "Biocore is going to conduct Scientific Conferences in near future for grouping all the eminent personalities ...

Is Frontiers Media a Predatory Publisher?

Frontiers Media (frontiersin.org) is an open access publisher in Lausanne, Switzerland, founded by serious neuroscientists. I looked around to learn what people were saying about it after receiving a request to review a manuscript for Frontiers in Genetics . The associate editor who wrote me as well most of the large board of "chief editors" seem to be serious and published researchers, but I do not know what to make of the journal's claim to have 5,689 editors. Zooming in on the field of "ELSI in Science and Genetics" yielded a list of 131 "associate editors." Frontiers notes the number of articles these editors have written; 27 had no publications of their own (or if they did, Frontiers neglected to mention them). Naturally, Frontiers claims that all of its 59 journals covering more than 460 specialties conduct transparent and rigorous peer review. It also states that "We publish all papers that are scientifically correct ." (Emphasis in we...

Knowledge Enterprises, Inc. (KEI Journals)

Beall saw it as " a publisher to avoid ". The emails do have a personal touch (if you happen to be "Dr. Dr. Kaye DH"). The true names behind the domain are hidden, as DomainsByProxy registered the domain name. LinkedIn (7/2/18) has the following entry for Katerina Bielka, M.D., whose name is on most of the spam: anaesthesiology and intensive care, pain management, Ukraine, Medical Practice, Bogomolets National Medical University, Clinic "Boris", Kiyv city hospital #17. Update (5/3/18): Medical Research Archives' "confidential" spam now drops any mention of KEI, but the domain for its email, medicalresearcharchives.com, is registered by GoDaddy.com to KEI Journals NA, 340 S Lemon Ave #7750, Walnut California 91789 US, +1.7632441130, f@zel.li. The address, which also appears in the strange confidentiality notice, is useful to many businesses who want to make it appear that they have a physical presence in California. See How Scitech Central Fak...
