Abstract
- This article presents information on the open access initiative (OA), a new publishing model, which removes the subscription barrier and allows all Internet users unrestricted access to articles. It also informs that Inter-Research (IR) journals will henceforth be offered the option of having their work published as OA papers. An article's impact is increased substantially by OA. Through OA, IR provides it's authors with increased exposure for their work. IR will offer this author-funded publication model for a trial period. The traditional subscription model will operate in parallel as part of a hybrid publishing experiment. When authors receive the proofs of their article, they will be offered the choice of OA and be informed of the fee. During this trial period with the hybrid revenue model, income generated from the sale of OA will be used to finance as many value-added services as possible. The commitment of IR will remain in tact to the highest standard of quality control for scientific content, copy editing and online presentation.
