Academic publisher IGI Global has launched four new open access journals, expanding its impressive portfolio to nearly 200 open access journals. Demonstrating its commitment to making "Tomorrow's Research Today" accessible to all, IGI Global has taken significant strides to convert its entire collection of nearly 200 open access journals earlier this year. This transformation has catapulted IGI Global into the ranks of the largest publishers of fully open access journals globally, reinforcing its dedication to fostering innovation, interdisciplinary research, and worldwide knowledge dissemination.
The introduction of these four journals - The International Journal of Smart Technologies (IJST), The International Journal of Neuroscience and Neuroinformatics (IJNN), The International Journal of Strategic Management and Innovation (IJSMI), and The International Journal of Contemporary Islamic Studies (IJCIS) - further solidifies IGI Global's pledge to open access publishing and represents a pivotal moment in the realm of academic research.
IGI Global's commitment to open access goes beyond the advantages of increased usage, citation impact, and potential inclusion in esteemed databases like Web of Science and SCOPUS. The complete transition to a fully open access publisher, boasting nearly 200 journals, underscores IGI Global's unwavering dedication to nurturing innovation, promoting diverse research topics, and enhancing knowledge accessibility. These newly established journals offer authors a dynamic platform to share their research globally without barriers, with a turnaround time as short as four weeks from submission to publication. Experts in these fields are invited to consider joining the Editorial Review Boards, contributing to scholarly engagement and collaboration with an aim to drive innovation and expand the reach of research within a thriving global scholarly community.
These four journals are joining IGI Global's extensive collection of nearly 200 advanced and scholarly open access journals, spanning a wide range of topics in Business & Management, Scientific, Technical, & Medical (STM), and Education. IGI Global's open access journals adhere to a stringent double-blind peer review process certified by the Committee on Publication Ethics (COPE) and are supported by the eEditorial Discovery® Submission System to facilitate rapid manuscript publication while maintaining ethical rigor. These journals are highly indexed in premier indices, with more than 65 represented in Web of Science (SSCI, SCIE, and ESCI), over 75 in Scopus, and more.
