The journal “Managing of Culture” adheres to the Diamond (Platinum) Open Access policy, including allowing and even encouraging authors to place their articles accepted for publication on their own personal websites or in other repositories (ResearchGate, institutional repositories) both before and after the article's publication, indicating in the bibliographic description a link to the publication of the final version of the article in this journal and DOI. The journal adheres to the “Free Self-Archiving” policy.

What and when can be self-archived by authors
  • preprint and review version – at any time;
  • the version of the article accepted for publication – after official notification from the editors of the article's acceptance for publication;
  • the final version – after the article is published as part of the issue on the journal's website.

Creative Commons and other licenses

Authors can publish preprints and versions of manuscripts under review (self-archive) under the terms of any license of their choice. We recommend the Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 International License (CC-BY) or any other Creative Commons license. Accepted versions of articles may be published under the terms of the open Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 International License (CC-BY) or its equivalent.

Third-party materials

Before publishing online for self-archiving, authors should ensure that they have all necessary rights and permissions to publish all components of the article. When publishing (self-archiving) an article under a Creative Commons license, the author must have the rights to place all borrowed elements in the published article under the corresponding license. The copyright holders of the borrowed elements of the published article must always be clearly indicated, as well as information that the use of these elements of the article without separate permission from the copyright holders is impossible.

Closed repositories and embargo period

Articles can be placed in closed repositories both before and after the official publication on the journal's website. A closed repository is one in which only the administrators of the repository site have access to the content.

Descriptions of articles (titles, abstracts, information about authors and links) can be made available both before and after the article is published as part of an issue on the journal's website. Full texts of final versions of articles can be made available on third-party websites with the obligatory indication of a link to the publication on the journal's website (including via DOI).

Placing content in repositories

The editorial board of the journal “Managing of Culture” allows and even recommends that authors place versions of articles accepted for publication on their pages on the Internet, on the websites of their organisations and public repositories (such as ResearchGateSSRNRePEc, etc.).

After the article is published, the editorial board requires that the authors indicate a link to the final version of the article on the journal's website. We also require that when submitting articles to third-party repositories, the following information be provided:
  • for articles not yet published – a clear statement that the manuscript has been accepted for publication, with a link to the journal's website;
  • for all published articles – a link to the final version of the article on the journal's website (including via DOI);
  • a clear statement of the license terms under which the published version of the article is posted.

Citing articles in repositories

When citing an accepted version of an article or an earlier version, we ask readers and authors to provide a link to the final version of the article and use the DOI.
