Our journal follows the Diamond Open Access model: all articles are free to read and free to publish. Readers have immediate, unrestricted access to the full content, and authors are not charged any Article Processing Charges (APCs) — neither personally nor through their institutions.
In line with Open Science principles, authors retain full copyright to their work. All published content is made available under the Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 International (CC BY 4.0) license. This supports transparency, collaboration, and broad reuse while ensuring that authorship is always acknowledged through proper attribution.
This publishing model reflects our commitment to equitable access to knowledge and to fostering a diverse and inclusive international scholarly community. The Diamond OA approach is sustained through institutional support and resources (including support from Vilnius University), enabling the open dissemination of high-quality research.
