Open publishing
Open publishing refers to the practice of making academic and creative works freely accessible to everyone, without paywalls or subscription fees. This approach allows researchers, writers, and artists to share their knowledge and creations with a wider audience, fostering collaboration and innovation. By removing barriers to access, open publishing promotes transparency, encourages peer review, and supports the idea that knowledge should be shared for the benefit of society as a whole. It is facilitated by platforms and technologies that enable authors to publish and distribute their work online easily. This model contrasts with traditional publishing, which often prioritizes profit.
