What are the advantages of Open Access publishing?
- An increased number of citations and improved reputation for the researcher: when an article is accessible to the research community worldwide, more readers can cite it. The increase in the number of citations helps boost the researcher's impact and the rank of the university.
- Research availability makes plagiarism harder.
- More chances to cooperate with researchers inside the university and worldwide.
Why publish with these publishers?
- Lower cost for the researchers.
- Articles are peer-reviewed.
Glossary:
- APC - Article Processing Charge - A fee charged to the author, creator, or institution to cover the cost of an article rather than charging the potential reader of the article. APCs may apply to both commercial and Open Access publications. APCs are sometimes charged to authors to cover the cost of publishing and disseminating an article in an Open Access scholarly journal.
- Corresponding Author - The corresponding author is the one individual who takes primary responsibility for communication with the journal during the manuscript submission, peer-review, and publication process.
- Peer-Review - is the independent assessment of your research paper by experts in your field. Its purpose is to evaluate the manuscript's quality and suitability for publication.
