All of these publications are available within the
IGI Global e-Book Collection, an interdisciplinary collection of over 7,300 e-books focusing on emerging research, all hosted on the InfoSci Platform. This platform offers institutions full-text PDF and XML format with no DRM, unlimited simultaneous users at no additional charge, remote access options, flexible acquisition models, and diverse & international perspectives from leading experts.
Indices such as Web of Science evaluate potential titles on the quality of their content, the diversity of authorship, and the content’s usage and impact.
IGI Global’s Open Access (OA) publishing provides authors with more sharing capabilities to increase the discoverability of the content, better promote its citation rate, and increase its chances of being indexed. Current chapters and past chapters can still have a CC BY license applied and be changed to the Open Access model.
IGI Global offers authors the ability to convert their work to Open Access at a discounted rate through our
Retrospective Open Access Program. Unlock your previously published work to Open Access (OA) and you can share your work freely. Authors who previously published their work under the traditional publishing model (standard access) would have signed an Author’s Warranty and Transfer of Copyright Agreement that transferred the copyright of their work to the publisher. When a journal article, book chapter, or full book publication is converted to open access, the copyright returns to the authors of the manuscript under the CC BY 4.0 license, allowing the copyright of the work to remain solely with the authors and opens greater sharing capabilities for authors who wish to maximize the visibility of their published work.
