- Standard (Non-OA) Publishing: If the author chooses to publish under the Standard (Non-OA) model, the article will be published under a Green OA model and the copyright of
their article will transfer to IGI Global under our Author Warranty and Transfer of Copyright Agreement.
However, through Green OA, IGI Global supports a Fair Use Policy, enabling authors to Post the final
typeset PDF (which includes the title page, table of contents and other front materials, and the copyright
statement) of their chapter or article (NOT THE ENTIRE BOOK OR JOURNAL ISSUE), on the author or
editor's secure personal website and/or their university repository site. See the Fair Use Policy for sharing allowances conducive to Green Open Access.
- Open Access Publishing: If the author choses to publish under OA, the authors receive the
Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 International (CC BY 4.0) licensing arrangement. The copyright for the
work remains solely with the author(s) of the article. Others may distribute, remix, tweak, and build upon
the work, even commercially, without asking prior permission from the publisher or author and so long as
they credit the author for the original creation. All authors are required to sign an author's warranty
stating that the materials are original and unpublished elsewhere. The journal will not publish any
material that has been previously published elsewhere. Learn More
This journal operates under the Hybrid Open Access model,
allowing the author to choose between traditional, subscription-based publishing, or Open Access publishing.
Subscription-Based Publishing/Green Open Access:
Article manuscripts require no Article Processing Charge (APC) and require authors to transfer the copyright of the
manuscript to IGI Global. Manuscripts are published behind a paywall and must be purchased for use. See the
Fair Use Policy
for sharing allowances conducive to Green Open Access.
