International Journal of Business Governance and Management (IJBGM)
Open Access Statement
The International Journal of Business Governance and Management (IJBGM) supports the principles of open scholarly communication and the wider dissemination of academic research.
The journal aims to make its published research accessible to readers, researchers, academicians, students and professionals worldwide. Readers should be able to access published articles online without subscription barriers.
IJBGM believes that wider access to research encourages academic discussion, knowledge sharing and the development of new ideas across disciplines.
Access to Published Articles
IJBGM provides online access to its published articles through its official journal website.
Readers can access published articles and issues without requiring an individual subscription or payment to read the content.
Articles are made available through the journal's online platform, allowing readers to discover, read and download research for academic and educational purposes, subject to the applicable copyright and licensing terms.
Author Rights
Authors retain the rights specified in the journal's Copyright and Licensing Policy.
The journal aims to support responsible sharing and wider dissemination of published research. Authors should refer to the applicable licensing terms before distributing or reusing their published work.
Any permitted reuse should provide proper acknowledgement of the original publication in IJBGM.
Copyright and Licensing
Copyright and reuse permissions are governed by the journal's published Copyright and Licensing
Policy.
The applicable licence will be clearly identified on each published article. Readers and authors should consult the licence information before reproducing, distributing, adapting or commercially reusing published material.
Authors are responsible for ensuring that they have the necessary permissions for any third-party content included in their manuscripts.
Publication Charges
Any applicable publication charges are communicated through the journal's official Publication Charges policy.
Access to published articles is not restricted by subscription fees. Publication charges, where applicable, are separate from readers' access to journal content.
Editorial decisions are based on academic quality and the peer-review process, not on payment.
Digital Preservation and Archiving
IJBGM recognises the importance of preserving published research for future readers and researchers.
The journal uses Open Journal Systems (OJS) as its online publishing platform and aims to maintain appropriate digital preservation arrangements to support the long-term availability of its published content.
PKP Preservation Network (PKP PN)
IJBGM intends to use the Public Knowledge Project Preservation Network (PKP PN) as part of its digital preservation strategy, subject to the journal meeting the applicable eligibility requirements, successful plugin configuration, acceptance of the preservation terms and confirmation of successful content deposits.
PKP PN is a digital preservation service developed by the Public Knowledge Project for eligible journals using Open Journal Systems. It uses the LOCKSS preservation approach to support distributed, long-term preservation of journal content.
PKP PN operates as a dark archive. Preserved content is not ordinarily available for public access through the network while the journal's website remains operational. Access to preserved content may be made available following a qualifying trigger event, in accordance with the network's procedures.
Further information is available in the official PKP Preservation Network documentation.
Responsibility for Published Content
Authors are responsible for the accuracy, originality and integrity of their published work.
The journal's editorial team is responsible for maintaining appropriate editorial and publication practices, including the handling of corrections, retractions and other post-publication matters in accordance with the journal's Publication Ethics and Malpractice Statement.
Commitment to Open Scholarly Communication
IJBGM supports wider access to scholarly research and encourages responsible academic sharing.
The journal aims to provide a transparent publishing environment in which published research can be accessed, read and cited by the international academic community.
