Conversion from subscription model to open access model

If your serial is published now in subscription-based model, you may have considered or you may want to consider converting your serial to open access model. Versita can convert your serial either to publisher-pays option or to author-pays option. The current subscription-based journal system does not work for most small publishers who publish in this model. Their subscription revenues are difficult to sustain. Libraries prefer to buy journals from large publishers who offer them in bundles.

Conversion from publisher-pays model to author-pays model

If your journal does not sell subscriptions, and does not charge authors for published articles, it is published in so-called publisher-pays model. Financing the journal may be a heavy burden for the institution to which the journal belongs. If the journal has good Impact Factor, its authors may be ready to pay for publication in your journal. Versita can convert your publisher-pays journal to author-pays option.

Professional publishing services for your publisher-pays journal

If you want to continue or start publishing your journal in publisher-pays model, you may want to consider outsourcing some or all publishing functions to a professional publisher.
