SELF ARCHIVING POLICY

The Global Journal of Social Sciences and Scientific Studies (GJSSS) strongly supports the principles of open scholarly communication and the free exchange of academic knowledge. The journal encourages authors to disseminate their research widely through self-archiving practices in order to enhance the visibility, accessibility, and scholarly impact of their work.

Authors are permitted to deposit different versions of their manuscripts in institutional repositories, personal websites, academic social networking platforms, or other recognized non-commercial repositories. This policy enables researchers to share their work with a broader academic audience and supports the global dissemination of scientific and social science research.

Self-archiving allows authors to preserve and promote their research while maintaining the credibility of the officially published version. By making their work accessible in multiple academic platforms, authors can increase citations, improve research visibility, and contribute to the wider academic community.

When depositing or sharing their manuscripts, authors must clearly acknowledge the Global Journal of Social Sciences and Scientific Studies (GJSSS) as the original source of publication. Proper citation details and, where possible, a direct link to the official journal website or the final published version of the article should be included. This practice ensures transparency and allows readers to easily access the authoritative version of the research.

The journal encourages responsible and ethical sharing of scholarly content while preserving the integrity and authenticity of the published record. Self-archiving should be conducted for academic, educational, and research purposes only, and the content should not be used for commercial distribution without prior permission from the journal.

Through this self-archiving policy, the Global Journal of Social Sciences and Scientific Studies (GJSSS) aims to support open access principles, promote academic collaboration, and expand the reach and influence of high-quality research published in the journal. By enabling authors to share their work through multiple platforms, the journal contributes to the advancement of global scholarship and knowledge dissemination.
