Open-access translation research journals

Today the latest issue of Parallèles,  the journal of research in translation and interpreting of the Faculty of Translation and Interpreting of the University of Geneva, came out.

Parallèles was founded in 1978. Forty years is a long time in the relatively new field of translation studies. So congratulations to them!

I was aghast to see that we did not have Parallèles in our links for translation journals on the right. I hastened to put that right. I think there could be other significant omissions. If you can suggest any links to open journals, please let us know.

As a footnote to this post, I should mention that last week (23 – 29 October) saw the international celebration of Open Access Week. Read about open access to research at the Wikipedia. Browse some of the activities of this growing movement on Twitter: #OAweek2017
