OPEN ACCESS POLICY

This policy follows the principles of the Budapest Open Access Initiative (BOAI).

2. Open License

Articles are published under the Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 International License (CC BY 4.0), except for third party material that is clearly marked as excluded.

  • Sharing the article
  • Adapting it, including remixing and translation
  • Commercial reuse
  • Credit the authors
  • Cite the original source
  • Link to the license
  • State whether changes were made

A use that the license already permits does not need further permission. The full terms, examples for teaching, and a sample credit line are given on the Licensing page.


3. Copyright and Author Rights

Authors keep the copyright to their articles. By publishing in SOSMANIORA, authors grant the journal the right of first publication, and the work is at the same time licensed to everyone under CC BY 4.0. Authors may reuse and distribute their own work, and they may make separate nonexclusive distribution arrangements, as long as the first publication in SOSMANIORA is acknowledged. Details are given on the Copyright Notice page.

4. Reader and Reuse Rights

Under CC BY 4.0, readers do not need separate permission from the authors, the journal, or the publisher.

Use Example
Read and download Reading online or saving a copy to a device.
Copy, print, and share Giving copies to students or training participants.
Link Linking to the full text from a course page, a reading list, or a website.
Translate and adapt Translating an article into Indonesian, English, or a regional language, and stating that the original is the authoritative version.
Teaching and research Use in lectures, training, literature reviews, and theses.
Crawl and index Indexing by search engines, library systems, and citation databases.
Text and data mining Analyzing the text of many articles with software.
Commercial and noncommercial reuse Including an article in a paid training program or in a free list of resources.
Open access does not mean unconditional reuse. Attribution, a link to the license, and a statement of changes are still required. See the Licensing page.

5. Open Access and Fees for Authors

Open access means that readers do not pay, but running a journal still has costs. SOSMANIORA does not charge a submission fee. Publication charges and other charges for authors are listed on the Author Fees page, which is the authoritative source for the amounts. Fees never decide whether a manuscript is accepted or rejected. Editors decide on quality and relevance, as described on the Peer Review Process and Publication Ethics pages.

6. Self Archiving and Repositories

The journal supports self archiving and applies no embargo. Authors may deposit the published version of their article, under CC BY 4.0, in any of the following places:

No. Place of deposit
1 Institutional and university repositories
2 Subject and disciplinary repositories
3 Personal and academic websites
4 Scholarly profiles and research networks
5 Other legitimate open repositories

When they deposit an article, authors should name SOSMANIORA as the original publisher, give the DOI if one has been assigned, and link to the official version on the journal website. A copy in an author repository does not replace the archive of the journal. See the Archiving Policy page.


7. Discovery, Indexing, and Machine Access

Subject to the license, the content and the metadata of the articles may be searched, linked, crawled, harvested, indexed, analyzed, and processed by academic search engines, library systems, repositories, citation databases, and text and data mining tools. The indexing services of the journal are listed on the Indexing page.


8. Third Party Material

Figures, photographs, maps, tables, datasets, test items, questionnaires, quotations, and similar items may carry separate rights. Any material that is excluded from the license should be identified in the credit line. Where neither a legal exception nor an open license applies, users must obtain permission from the rights holder. More guidance is given on the Licensing page.


9. Budapest Open Access Initiative

SOSMANIORA supports the principle of the Budapest Open Access Initiative that scholarly literature should be freely available online and open to broad lawful use. The full declaration can be read at budapestopenaccessinitiative.org/read.
