Article Processing Fees
Introduction
Medires Publishers is dedicated to providing free, unrestricted access to scholarly articles worldwide, recognizing the universal benefits of research dissemination. We operate exclusively as an open-access publisher, allowing readers to utilize published content under a Creative Commons attribution license agreement (CC-BY). To sustain our operations and maintain the highest publishing standards, we rely on article processing charges (APCs) and, occasionally, retraction fees to cover the costs associated with publication and ensure the integrity of the scholarly record.
Article Processing Charges (APCs):
The publication process is multifaceted and resource-intensive, involving editing, typesetting, storage, and archiving of articles, along with maintaining advanced peer-reviewed platforms. As a self-reliant organization without external funding, Medires Publishers relies on APCs, which are payable upon acceptance of a manuscript for publication. These charges enable us to uphold rigorous editorial standards and provide authors with comprehensive publishing services. Authors can conveniently pay APCs through our online payment portal or via bank transfer, with payment receipts promptly issued upon completion.
Retraction Fees:
In rare instances where authors opt to retract their published paper following extensive review and revisions, Medires Publishers implements a retraction fee policy. This fee, equivalent to 20% of the total expenses incurred during the publication process, acknowledges the resources invested in ensuring the quality and integrity of published content. These expenses encompass the contributions of editors, reviewers, editorial assistants, and technological infrastructure essential for maintaining a robust peer-review system. The imposition of retraction fees underscores our commitment to preserving the scholarly record while mitigating the costs associated with retracting published articles.
Conclusion:
At Medires Publishers, our commitment to open access and quality research is unwavering. By transparently outlining our APCs and retraction fee policies, we aim to foster understanding and collaboration within the scholarly community. Through the support of authors, research institutes, and funding agencies, we continue to advance the dissemination of knowledge while upholding the highest publishing standards. We invite authors to join us in our mission to facilitate global access to scholarly research and contribute to the collective advancement of knowledge.
