GAERPSY Publishing is fully committed to open-access publishing. All journals published by GAERPSY Publishing are open access, meaning that all published content is freely available to readers worldwide without subscription fees or access charges.
- Our commitment
GAERPSY Publishing supports the Budapest Open Access Initiative (BOAI) definition of open access. We believe that making research freely available accelerates scientific discovery, promotes knowledge sharing, and reduces global inequalities in access to information.

- Archiving and preservation
To ensure long-term availability of published research, all GAERPSY journals utilise the PKP preservation network and the LOCKSS (Lots of Copies Keep Stuff Safe) system for digital preservation.
