Open Access Statement

e-Saintika | Section 01

1. Open Access Commitment

Jurnal Penelitian dan Pengkajian Ilmu Pendidikan: e-Saintika, published by Lembaga Penelitian dan Pemberdayaan Masyarakat (LITPAM), provides immediate open access to its published scholarly content. Readers may access and read articles online without subscription or pay-per-view charges.

The journal supports the broad dissemination and responsible use of research by scholars, educators, students, practitioners, and the public. Making published research freely accessible helps facilitate scholarly communication and the exchange of knowledge across institutions and countries.

Articles are accessible upon publication; the journal does not impose a reader-access embargo on its published content.

2. Licensing and Reuse

Articles published in e-Saintika are licensed under the Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike 4.0 International License (CC BY-SA 4.0), as indicated in the journal's Copyright Notice.

Subject to the license terms, users may copy, redistribute, and adapt licensed article content for any purpose, including commercial purposes. Users must provide appropriate credit, include a link to the license, and indicate whether changes were made. Adapted material must be distributed under the same or a compatible license as specified by CC BY-SA 4.0.

The license applies to the material identified as licensed in each article. Third-party content credited under separate terms may require additional permission from the relevant rights holder.

3. Copyright and Publishing Rights

Authors retain copyright in their published work. By publishing in e-Saintika, authors grant the journal the right of first publication and the non-exclusive publishing permissions described in its Copyright Notice.

Authors may enter into separate, non-exclusive arrangements to distribute the published version of their work, including through institutional repositories or other scholarly channels, provided that the original publication in e-Saintika is acknowledged and the applicable license terms are respected.

The Copyright Notice is the journal's authoritative statement on copyright ownership and publishing rights. This Open Access Policy explains the associated access and sharing practices.

e-Saintika | Section 04

4. Self-Archiving and Repositories

Authors may deposit accepted manuscripts and the final published versions of their e-Saintika articles in repositories without a journal-imposed embargo. Eligible destinations include institutional repositories, disciplinary repositories, personal academic websites, and academic sharing networks or platforms, subject to the platform's applicable terms.

The journal also permits and encourages authors to share their scholarly work online before and during submission, subject to its originality, disclosure, and publication ethics requirements. Any relevant prior dissemination, including a publicly available preprint, should be disclosed during submission so that the editor can assess it appropriately.

When sharing the published version, authors should retain the citation, journal identification, DOI (where assigned), and the applicable CC BY-SA 4.0 license notice. For an accepted manuscript deposited before publication, authors should update the repository record with the final article citation and DOI when these become available.

e-Saintika | Section 05

5. Attribution and Responsible Sharing

To preserve attribution and help readers identify the version of record, authors and other users sharing an e-Saintika article should include the following information whenever available:

1. The names of the article's authors and the article title.
2. The journal title, publication year, volume, issue, and page range or article identifier.
3. The DOI or a stable link to the article on the journal website.
4. The Creative Commons license and an indication of any adaptations or changes.
5. A clear description of the shared version when it is not the final published article.

Repository deposit and redistribution do not change the journal's record of first publication. Any reuse of separately credited third-party material must also comply with the rights applicable to that material.

e-Saintika | Section 06

6. Reader Access and Publication Charges

Open access means that readers are not charged to access published articles. It does not necessarily mean that publishing is free for authors. Article processing charges, applicable exemptions, and waiver arrangements are explained separately in the journal's Article Processing Charges (APC) Policy.

Publication charges and waiver eligibility are separate from the scholarly evaluation of manuscripts. The journal's Copyright Notice provides further information about licensing and author rights.
