From November 2020 to January 2021, CALJ conducted a survey to better understand how the journal community in Canada has been affected by the COVID-19 pandemic. The survey was shared with members of CALJ, with the journals currently hosted on Érudit, and with the wider Canadian scholarly journal community.

A total of 58 Canadian journals completed the survey. The results and the raw data relating to their responses is found below.

CALJ would like to thank Érudit for their assistance in drafting the survey as well as in distributing the survey.

We are pleased to announce that the application process for the 2021 SRC/CALJ Journal Innovation Award is now open.

This award recognizes innovation implemented or first measured in 2019 or 2020 by a Canadian scholarly journal and which is focussed on enhancing readership and/or other forms of engagement with journal content.

This is our opportunity to showcase the innovation that’s happening in Canada with our scholarly journals!
