At IOSI Publications, we are firmly committed to the principles of open access. We believe that knowledge should be freely accessible to all, transcending geographical, financial, and institutional barriers. Our dedication to open access reflects our core values and our mission to advance the dissemination of research and scholarship worldwide.
Our Open Access Policy is founded on the following principles:
- Universal Accessibility: We are committed to making all our published content freely available to the global community. This means that anyone, anywhere, can access, read, download, and share our research publications without any restrictions.
- Supporting Research Communities: Open access fosters collaboration, innovation, and the exchange of ideas among researchers, scholars, students, and practitioners. By providing free access to our publications, we aim to strengthen research communities and empower individuals to engage with cutting-edge knowledge.
- Empowering Authors: We recognize the importance of researchers’ ability to disseminate their work effectively. Our open access model allows authors to reach a broader audience, increasing the visibility and impact of their research.
- Enhancing Visibility and Impact: Open access publications are more widely read and cited, contributing to the global dissemination of research findings and increasing the potential for real-world applications.
- Preserving Knowledge: We are committed to preserving the cultural and scientific heritage contained in our publications. Our long-term archiving ensures that research articles remain accessible for future generations, adding to the collective body of knowledge.
- Ethical Publishing Practices: IOSI Publications upholds rigorous peer review and editorial standards to maintain the quality and integrity of the research we publish, ensuring that open access does not compromise scholarly excellence.
By adhering to these principles, IOSI Publications aligns itself with the broader open access movement, advancing the democratization of knowledge and fostering a more inclusive and equitable scholarly ecosystem. We invite authors, readers, institutions, and organizations to join us in our commitment to the unrestricted dissemination of academic knowledge.
