Every paper published in IJERMSH is free to read, download, and share — permanently, for everyone, everywhere.
IJERMSH is a fully open-access journal. There is no subscription, paywall, or reader access fee of any kind — anywhere in the world.
Every accepted paper is published immediately and permanently available online, free for anyone to read, download, and cite — without needing institutional access, a subscription, or payment of any kind.
Published work is made available under a Creative Commons license. Authors retain copyright of their own work while granting IJERMSH the right to publish, archive, and distribute it. Authors are free to share their published paper on personal websites, institutional repositories, ResearchGate, or Academia.edu, provided the original publication is cited with its DOI. See our full Licensing & Copyright page for details.
Since readers are never charged, the journal is funded through an Article Processing Charge (APC) paid by authors only after their paper is accepted — never at submission, and never for a rejected paper. See the APC / Fees page for current rates.
Removing the paywall maximizes a paper's visibility, citation potential, and real-world reach — connecting research directly to the widest possible audience of scholars, students, and practitioners, without geographic or institutional barriers.
