In addition to a number of new videos, the listing now also contains tutorials for the new category "Predatory Publishing".

On the one hand, video tutorials can be used for self-information purposes and own competence development, on the other hand they are a good possibility to illustrate complex issues in different contexts such as information events.

For this reason, several years ago ZB MED already compiled a list of video tutorials on Open Access and related topics such as Creative-Common-Licence, Peer Review or Altmetrics and described them with metadata as including content and length.

This list has now been updated and new videos added. Also new is the addition of a further category on the topic of "Predatory Publishing" which ZB MED has been working on for some time now and is also providing information and advice on this topic.

Have fun discovering!
