The Directory of Open Access Journals (DOAJ) is a terrific resource containing, in their words, access to “free, full text, quality controlled scientific and scholarly journals.” If only they had a full-text search tool (they do have a “Find Article” search, but it covers less than 1/3 of the journals they list).
Well, now they have a search tool, in a way: LukeTheLibrarian has set up a Google Custom Search tool for DOAJ journals. It seems to work fairly well, based on a couple of test searches. Give it a try: This may be the tool that gives traction to the Open Access Journal movement!
