Emerald partners with Zendy offering individuals affordable access to a significant collection of scholarly research
Emerald collaborates with Zendy to give access to additional scholarly research with 311 journals in selected African countries.
As part of Emerald’s commitments to help make a positive change in the real world in line with the UN’s Sustainability Development Goals, this collaboration allows Zendy to offer a pertinent portfolio across critical disciplines, offering new perspectives on highly relevant subjects and fields.
Zendy gives access to scholarly research to a diverse audience who would otherwise not be able to use the information due to hitting high cost paywalls with a one-stop-solution for scholars, non-profits, independent learners and everyone else. All Open Access titles will, additionally, soon be made available on ZendyOpen. Here individuals will be able to search freely as well as download Open Access full-text material.
Head of Emerald’s Commercial Operations, John Eggleton said “Emerald Publishing is delighted to extend our working relationship with Knowledge E, having worked successfully together to serve the academic community across the region. We’re excited to bring our journal content to new audiences and new markets and look forward to furthering our relationship through the Zendy platform.”
Founder and CEO of Knowledge E, Kamran R. Kardan commented, “The Zendy team is thrilled to be taking another step towards this vision with Emerald Publishing and look forward to the many discoveries that could emanate from a united, global, collaborative research ecosystem.”

About Zendy
Zendy is an online platform created to provide individuals with access to scholarly research and literature. Zendy originates from the notion of building a more knowledgeable world, as there has never been a time where easy, affordable access to content has been more needed. Access to scientific publications is particularly troublesome in developing countries, where many universities cannot afford the subscription databases required for advancing research and studies. Zendy is working to remove barriers from scholarly discovery to make academic literature affordable and accessible to everyone, all academic and non-academic professionals, students and knowledge enthusiasts.
Zendy is developed by Knowledge E in a growing collaboration with researchers, students, institutions and publishers to facilitate the democratisation of knowledge.
