For authors
Why choose IJCRM for open access publishing
351 articles across 90 issues since 2016, every one free to read and every one still at the address it was published on.
-
Open access, with no fee to the reader
Anyone can read and build on work published here without a subscription, an institutional login or a payment. That matters most for readers who have no university library behind them, which is a large part of the audience for a multidisciplinary journal.
-
Citation reach
The evidence on open access suggests that papers which anyone can download are cited more often, and sooner, than papers behind a paywall. The mechanism is not mysterious: a reader who cannot open a paper cannot cite it.
-
Permanent addresses
Every article published since 2016 is still served at its original URL. When this site was rebuilt in 2026 not one article address was changed, because a citation in someone else's reference list is a promise the journal has to keep. Check any paper in the archive against a citation of it.
-
Double-blind peer review
Reviewers do not see who wrote the paper and authors do not see who reviewed it, so the assessment turns on the work. The review process is set out in full, including how conflicts of interest are handled.
-
A decision in 1 to 2 days
Submissions are acknowledged within 24 hours and a decision follows in 1 to 2 days. Accepted papers are published within 72 hours of the publication charge being confirmed.
-
Digitally signed certificates
Every author of a published paper receives a digitally signed e-certificate, at no extra cost.
