Publish open access articles in Cogitatio Press journals at no extra fee!
Vytautas Magnus University is a member of the Cogitatio Press Institutional Membership Programme, which gives our institution’s authors the opportunity to publish open access articles free of charge in all Cogitatio Press journals. Under this programme, authors of Vytautas Magnus University do not have to pay Article Processing Charges (APCs)*.
*An Article Processing Charge (APC) is the fee that publishing houses charge for editing, reviewing and making an article available on the Internet for open access to all readers.
Who can benefit from the discount?
VMU lecturers, researchers and students who are credited as corresponding authors in the publication. Authors must confirm their institutional affiliation and use VMU email address at the time of submission, as the publisher identifies authors by the email domain “vdu.lt”.
