[edit] Journals
If you are contributing to Appropedia here are some journals to consider publishing in.
The Directory of Open Access Journals is a great place to start as well or the Open Access Journal Search Open access journal impact http://www.eigenfactor.org/openaccess/
Impact Factors follow the journal's name with (year) found, Newer journals will not have an impact factor. Sustainability/Appropriate technology is a new and growing interdisciplinary field and impact factors are of lesser value to it than a conventional field like medicine.
