Recursos para estruturação de um periódico bilíngue no Open Journal Systems

Abstract

The internet has supported the dissemination of scientific information, with periodicals open access one of the vectors in this process. However, even if English is the lingua franca in the sciences, many journals publish in their own language, creating a complex multilingual environment. These problems can be minimized with the bilingual publication, preserving the mother tongue and English, for example. Periodicals with offering more than one language allow greater visibility of your production, supporting internationalization, facilitating the reception of articles produced in countries not English speakers. However, the operation of a system for publishing scientific journals in two or more languages ​​presents challenges for publishers, as it requires interaction with the system in other languages ​​and the configuration of data in specific forms for each language used. Thus, in the present study, they are listed and described resources applicable to the development of journals that evaluate and publish documents in more of a language, specifically in the context of Open Journal Systems, known in Brazil as an Electronic Magazine Editing System (SEER)
