Deposit/Self-Archiving Policy

Nursing Genius Journal recognizes the importance of open access to scholarly research and supports the dissemination of knowledge. In alignment with this commitment, the journal has established a Deposit/Self-Archiving Policy to empower authors in sharing their work through various channels.

Pre-Prints: Authors are granted the freedom to deposit the pre-print version, representing the manuscript before formal peer review (pre-refereeing), to their institutional repositories or personal websites.

Post-Prints: Authors are encouraged to archive the post-print version, indicating the final draft after undergoing peer review (post-refereeing) or the accepted version, in their institutional repositories or personal websites. This ensures wider accessibility to the scholarly content following the formal evaluation process.

Publisher's Version/PDF: Furthermore, authors are permitted to archive the publisher's version/PDF of their work. This version represents the final published article and contributes to the accessibility of the authoritative version of the research.

Flexibility for Authors: Nursing Genius Journal affords authors the flexibility to choose the version they wish to deposit or self-archive, encompassing pre-prints, post-prints, and the publisher's version/PDF. This flexibility aims to support authors in sharing their contributions with the academic community and the public.

Institutional Repositories and Personal Websites: Authors are encouraged to utilize their institution's repositories or personal websites as platforms for self-archiving. This practice facilitates broader dissemination of research findings while respecting copyright and licensing agreements.

Emphasis on Open Access: By embracing a liberal self-archiving policy, Nursing Genius Journal emphasizes the principles of open access, enabling authors to contribute to the global scholarly community and fostering the dissemination of valuable research outcomes.

Nursing Genius Journal appreciates the significance of authors' contributions to the scholarly discourse and remains committed to facilitating the open sharing of knowledge while respecting copyright and ethical considerations.
