Paper Prints Policy

The International Journal of Machine Learning and Engineering (IJMLE) values accessibility and the dissemination of research, ensuring that authors, institutions, and readers can easily access and distribute published content. Below are the key components of the Paper Prints Policy for the journal:

1. Open Access and Digital Distribution

  • All articles published in IJMLE are available open access and can be freely downloaded from the journal’s website. The journal ensures that the content is accessible to readers worldwide without any subscription or payment barriers. This promotes global dissemination and usage of the research.

2. Printed Copies for Authors

  • IJMLE primarily operates as an online open-access journal and does not provide printed copies of each issue or article as a standard offering. However, authors who wish to receive a printed copy of their published article may request one.

    • Requesting a Print Copy: Authors wishing to obtain a physical copy of their article must submit a request to the editorial team after their article has been published. Print copies are available upon request, subject to availability and associated costs.

    • Associated Costs: Authors will be responsible for the costs of printing and shipping the paper copies, which will be communicated to them upon receiving the request.

3. Institutional and Library Access

  • IJMLE works with various institutions and libraries to facilitate access to printed versions of the journal for their collections. Institutions interested in obtaining printed copies for their libraries should contact the editorial office directly for information regarding subscriptions and institutional orders.

    • Subscription to Printed Issues: Institutions can also inquire about receiving printed versions of future issues or special editions. A subscription plan for printed copies may be available upon request.

4. Special Issues and Conferences

  • For special issues, conference proceedings, or other thematic publications, the journal may offer printed versions of these issues to conference organizers, institutions, or researchers. These printed copies will be available to participants or collaborators associated with the event.

    • Conference Copies: Printed copies of articles from special conference editions can be distributed at the conference for attendees. Requests for bulk printing should be made well in advance of the event.

5. Quality and Presentation

  • IJMLE ensures that printed copies of articles are of high-quality production, with professional printing standards. The printed version of each article will maintain the formatting, figures, and layout consistent with the online publication to ensure clarity and readability.

    • Paper Type and Quality: Printed copies will be produced on standard A4-sized paper with a high-quality finish for durability and presentation.

6. Copyright and Distribution Rights

  • Authors who request printed copies of their articles are granted the right to distribute the printed copies within their institution, for educational purposes, or as part of their personal academic portfolio. However, authors should note that IJMLE retains the copyright for all published content, and the distribution of printed copies is for personal, educational, and academic use only.

7. No Commercial Use

  • Printed copies are not for commercial resale or distribution. They are provided for personal use, academic purposes, and institutional libraries. The sale of printed copies is not permitted unless specifically agreed upon by the journal.
