OJS: Best Practices and Use Cases

Thu, 09/10/2025 - 16:21

Join the 7th EIFL webinar on using Open Journal Systems (OJS), free and open source software that facilitates the management and publishing of scholarly journals. 

The webinar will explain how to manage OJS through containers. Containers are a way to package software so that it runs the same everywhere, making installation, updates and troubleshooting much easier. We will walk participants through setting up OJS with commonly used tools like Docker and Docker Compose, demonstrate how to keep it secure and backed up, and share practical tips for everyday management.
