Article Processing Charges

JMSK is an international journal that publishes original articles in many disciplines from multiple perspectives. Free access to the content of JMSK is provided, in the form of an online open access journal. An article processing fee of $500 is charged for each article that is accepted for publication in JMSK in order to support the ongoing publication process and associated operational costs.

There is no fee for submitting a manuscript. Authors are not asked to make any payment during submission or peer review. The processing charge is requested only after the paper has been reviewed and formally accepted.

The Article Processing Charge covers:

• Editorial management and peer review.
• Copyediting and formatting of the accepted manuscript.
• Online publication of the article.
• Permanent open access to the published work.

After acceptance of a submission, the Editorial Office will provide detailed payment instructions to authors. In some situations, editors may provide waiver(s) for the APC, in whole or part, based on individual situations and at the discretion of the editorial board.

The JMSK intends to promote transparency in its charging practices for authors and foster an environment of support for authors, while continuing to maintain the integrity of high quality and sustainable open access publication.
