»Open Access & Scholarly Publishing
Open access (OA) research is information that has been made publicly available without cost to the consumer. Many funding agencies now have open access mandates that require researchers to deposit their peer-reviewed work in a freely accessible repository within a specified time after publication. Open access has other benefits as well, such as citation advantages for authors and the removal of barriers for readers around the world.
Whether you are publishing your research OA or with a traditional publisher, our team can help you find relevant, high-quality publication venues, avoid potentially predatory outlets, and evaluate the reach and impact of your scholarship.
