Resource: African Journals Online
This siteis an index of thousands of articles published in reputable African journals. The site explains its mission thus:
"Important areas of research in Africa are not necessarily covered by publications from the developed world. African countries need to collectively play a greater role in the global online scholarly environment. African researchers also need access to their own continent's scholarly publications."
That makes sense to me. Interestingly, they have means-tested access to articles: the site uses your IP address to determine whether you're in a developing country and charges accordingly (those from developing countries get a limited number of articles for free). All articles indexed from Open Access journals are free. 476 journals are indexed.
