Gilbert C. Magulod Jr (PhD), Leonilo B. Capulso (PhD), Emerlyn E. Managuas (PhD)...Academic institutions take initiatives to enable their faculty members to write and publish scientific articles in all fields. This paper presents the usability assessment of online technology tools for journal article publication by faculty researchers. It employed a descriptive survey research design to 21 faculty researchers of one higher learning institution in the Philippines who served as the respondents. Data were gathered after a research article journal packaging write shop, which was conducted for three days. The result showed that the respondents strongly agreed that the online tools such as google scholar reference manager and Grammarly software, PlagScan, and Automatic readability Tool are highly useful, accepted, and satisfying to use. They have enhanced their journal articles on lexical and grammar quality, appropriate referencing style, proper citation procedure, readability, and originality scores. This paper presents that a higher degree of the cleansing process using online resources will guarantee the quality of research articles for journal publication. Implications of this study will edify research managers and administrators to inspire faculty members to engage in a scientific publication through institutional policy recommendations.
