Open Access Statement

The Algerian Journal of Biosciences is committed to the principles of open access, ensuring that all research and academic content is freely available to the global scientific community and the general public. Our open access policy promotes unrestricted access to the journal's content, allowing readers to read, download, share, and use the published materials without subscription fees or paywalls.

Key Features of Our Open Access Policy:

1. Free and Immediate Access All articles published in the Algerian Journal of Biosciences are made available to the public immediately upon publication. This ensures that the latest research in biosciences is accessible to everyone, fostering knowledge dissemination and the advancement of science without financial barriers.

2. Creative Commons Licensing The journal employs a Creative Commons Attribution License Non Comercial (CC BY NC) for its published work. This means that users are free to copy, distribute, and adapt the material for any purpose, even commercially, as long as the original work and source are properly cited. This open licensing promotes collaboration, innovation, and the wider use of research outputs.

3. No Article Processing Charges (APCs) The Algerian Journal of Biosciences operates under a model that does not require authors to pay article processing charges (APCs) for the submission or publication of their research. This aligns with our mission to make scientific knowledge accessible to all, without financial burdens on authors or readers.

4. Global Accessibility By embracing the open access model, the Algerian Journal of Biosciences ensures that its content reaches a broad audience, including researchers, educators, students, policymakers, and the general public across the world, particularly in regions where access to scientific literature may be limited.

5. Long-Term Archiving and Preservation The journal collaborates with digital archiving services to ensure the long-term preservation of its published content. This guarantees that all research articles remain accessible and usable by future generations of scientists and researchers, irrespective of technological changes or shifts in access models.

6. Promotion of Scientific Collaboration Open access facilitates global collaboration by enabling researchers from different parts of the world to freely access, build upon, and apply the findings published in the Algerian Journal of Biosciences. This open knowledge sharing supports the growth of scientific communities and encourages interdisciplinary research efforts.

7. Ethical and Transparent Publishing The journal adheres to the highest ethical standards in scientific publishing, following rigorous peer-review processes. The transparency of our open access model ensures that all published work is of the highest quality, verifiable, and reproducible by the wider scientific community.

In line with our commitment to advancing the field of biosciences, the Algerian Journal of Biosciences believes that open access is crucial in making research more visible, impactful, and useful. By removing barriers to accessing scholarly work, we contribute to the democratization of scientific knowledge and encourage greater participation in research and innovation.

How Open Access Benefits Authors and Researchers:

• Increased Visibility and Citations: Open access articles tend to have a higher readership, which can lead to increased citations and greater impact within the scientific community.
• Broader Public Engagement: Open access allows non-specialists, including educators, policymakers, and industry professionals, to benefit from scientific findings, bridging the gap between research and application.
• Compliance with Funders’ Requirements: Many research funders and institutions now require that publications derived from their funding be openly accessible. Publishing with the Algerian Journal of Biosciences ensures compliance with these mandates.
