Open Access Policy

Starting with number 1 (2015), SUBBTO issues have the status of "Open Access".

As an Open Access journal, SUBBTO  does not charge readers or their institutions for access (read, download, copy, distribute, print for research use, search, or link to the full texts of articles).

All articles published in SUBBTO  are fully open access: immediately freely available to read, download and share.

Authors can re/use the material however they want as long as it fits the NC ND terms of the license Creative Commons. Authors are themselves responsible for obtaining permission to reproduce copyright material from other sources.

SUBBTO  does not charge the authors any publication fees.

 

Distribution, deposit and archiving:

The published content is deposited in digital preservation services: OAI – to provide metadata to third-party indexing services through the Open Archives Initiative, PKP Preservation Network (PN), LOCKSS, CLOCKSS, OpenAire Explore, etc. 

Articles published are deposited in the archives of Lucian Blaga Central University Library in Cluj-Napoca and in other platforms. They may also be included in the repositories of Babeș-Bolyai University’s national and international partner institutions.  

The authors are allowed to deposit versions of their work in an institutional or other repository of their choice.

The distribution / circulation of the publication (printed version) is done only through the national and international exchange of the "Lucian Blaga" University Library in Cluj-Napoca.

The articles will be stored, soon, at our BBU DSPACE: Studia Universitatis Babeș-Bolyai Collection.
