List of Canadian independent, scholarly journals (2020)

This data set contains a list of active, Canadian independent, scholarly journals compiled as a part of the \"Documenting labour in Canadian academic publishing\" research study. The data was collected between October 2019-April 2020, and reviewed and updated in July-August 2020. For the purposes of this project, the following inclusion criteria were used: Canadian: a minimum of one-third of the core editorial board is affiliated with an eligible Canadian post-secondary institution. We used this as the primary criteria and not whether or not the journal title is owned by a Canadian not-for-profit organization. As we are interested primarily in labour, limiting it based on the editorial board was natural for this study. Independent: A journal is not affiliated with a commercial publisher (e.g. Springer, Elsevier, Sage, etc.). Non-profits, like Érudit and University of Toronto Press, were included in the project. Scholarly: defined as a peer-reviewed academic publication that disseminates the results of original scholarship. We have excluded additional student-run journals as per the SSHRC guidelines as well. Active: The journal has published in the last 3 years. The second list is of the journals that we removed from our original data collection that did not meet the above criteria when reviewed.

本数据集收录了一批活跃的加拿大独立学术期刊，相关整理工作隶属于"加拿大学术出版领域劳工记录"研究项目。数据集采集时间为2019年10月至2020年4月，并于2020年7月至8月完成审核与更新。

本项目采用如下纳入标准：
1. 加拿大属性：核心编委会至少三分之一的成员隶属于符合资质的加拿大高等教育机构。本项目将该条件作为核心纳入标准，而非以期刊所有权是否归属加拿大非营利组织为准。鉴于本研究聚焦劳工议题，以编委会隶属关系作为判定依据更贴合研究目标。
2. 独立属性：期刊未与商业出版机构（如施普林格（Springer）、爱思唯尔（Elsevier）、赛吉（Sage）等）存在关联。非营利出版机构如Érudit与多伦多大学出版社（University of Toronto Press）均可纳入本数据集。
3. 学术属性：指经同行评议的学术出版物，用于传播原创学术研究成果。此外，依据加拿大社会科学与人文研究委员会（Social Sciences and Humanities Research Council of Canada, SSHRC）的指南，本项目同时排除了全部学生运营期刊。
4. 活跃属性：近三年内有出版记录的期刊。

本数据集还附带一份从初始收集中剔除的期刊清单，这些期刊在后续审核中未达到上述纳入标准。
