This article is a first-hand account of the author's work identifying and listing
predatory publishers from 2012 to 2017. Predatory publishers use the gold (author
pays) open access model and aim to generate as much revenue as possible, often
foregoing a proper peer review. The paper details how predatory publishers came
to exist and shows how they were largely enabled and condoned by the open-access
social movement, the scholarly publishing industry, and academic librarians. The
author describes tactics predatory publishers used to attempt to be removed from
his lists, details the damage predatory journals cause to science, and comments
on the future of scholarly publishing.
