nowpublishers.com, Authors Advantages, and librarian-friendly policy!



Heather Morrison

Librarians looking for a good model for publishers wishing to be sure to continue to attract the best authors might wish to look at nowpublishers.com's website! Librarians will like the Background section, too; this talks about providing librarians with value for money, using modern web-based marketing and manufacturing technologies to minimize costs!!

A prominent link on the home page leads to a link to Authors Advantages - which include High Quality, High Citation, Liberal Copyright Policy, and Wide Access.

Liberal Copyright means:

Authors retain copyright of the article

# Authors are free to self-archive

# Authors can re-use the work in books, etc without asking permission
or paying fees

For more on this topic, please see my blogpost nowpublishers.com and Authors Advantage, at: http://poeticeconomics.blogspot.com/2008/02/nowpublisherscom-and-authors-advantages.html
