The Open Journal Systems (OJS) is one of the most widely used platforms in the world for managing and publishing scientific journals. Developed by the Public Knowledge Project (PKP), OJS is a robust, flexible, open-source tool designed to meet the needs of editors, authors and reviewers. However, to make the most of OJS's potential, it is essential to have specialized technical support. That's where OJSBR comes into play, offering hosting, support and customization so that editors can focus on what really matters: the quality of scientific content.
