Journal of Research Practice (JRP) (ISSN 1712-851X) is a peer-reviewed electronic journal with a transdisciplinary focus, published as an open-access journal. It uses Open Journal Systems to manage the online publication process.

JRP is published by Athabasca University Press (AU Press), Canada. Free access to JRP has been made possible through institutional sponsorships and optional copyediting fees paid by authors.

The editorial office is hosted at Xavier Institute of Management, Bhubaneswar, India. The editorial team is fairly international in character, with persons from Australia, Canada, Chile, Denmark, Finland, India, Israel, Japan, The Netherlands, New Zealand, Norway, Switzerland, UK, and USA.

The journal seeks to (a) connect research-inclined persons working in different disciplinary, institutional, and practical contexts and (b) through this, extend the practice of research to progressively newer territories. Both these aims are expected to facilitate the wider purposes of promoting research education around the world and innovative forms of research in different socially relevant areas.

JRP is included in the following indexing services: Directory of Open Access Journals (DOAJ), Open J-Gate, EBSCO, and Ulrich's Periodicals Directory. JRP metadata are harvested by OAIster using OAI-PMH (the Open Archives Initiative Protocol for Metadata Harvesting).

Archival agencies, libraries, publishers, and other agencies associated with academic/scholarly publishing are welcome to contact the Editors to discuss any specific proposals they may have. If the proposal involves a commercial interest, they would be expected to share a part of their benefit with JRP.
