Support the European Hebrew Journal (EHJ)
Supporting Open Access and Independent Scholarly Publishing
The European Hebrew Journal (EHJ) is an international, peer-reviewed academic journal dedicated to Hebrew language studies, Jewish Studies, Semitic linguistics, biblical philology, manuscript traditions, textual criticism, and related interdisciplinary fields.
EHJ is committed to the principles of:
- rigorous peer review
- international academic collaboration
- open access scholarship
- preservation and dissemination of knowledge
- accessibility of research without subscription barriers
Unlike many academic journals supported by large institutions or commercial publishers, EHJ is developed through independent academic work and sustained primarily through voluntary support and donations.
Why Donations Matter
Developing and maintaining an international scholarly journal requires ongoing resources.
Donations help support:
• editorial and technical management of the journal
• peer review coordination and communication with reviewers
• website hosting and digital infrastructure
• long-term development of the journal platform
• copyediting, formatting, and publication preparation
• international academic collaboration
• preservation of open access scholarly content
• DOI registration and indexing-related development (where applicable)
• growth of independent academic publishing initiatives
Every contribution directly supports the continuation and development of the journal.
Research, editorial work, peer review, publication infrastructure, and long-term academic projects require financial support. Donations help ensure that scholarly work remains openly accessible rather than restricted behind paywalls.
Our Publishing Principle
We believe that high-quality scholarly research should remain accessible.
The long-term goal of EHJ is to maintain:
✓ open access availability
