Open Access is a mechanism that allows free access to literature on the public Internet, enabling users to read, download, copy, and use it for any legal purposes without financial, legal, or technical barriers, other than those inherent to accessing the Internet itself. Open Access is a new step in digital publishing, where valuable research and scientific contributions from authors are available online without additional fees.

Open Access allows anyone using Index Copernicus scientific journals to freely copy, distribute, and transmit works without financial or legal barriers. It enables authors to learn from previous research and create innovative extensions to previously published scientific works.

Open Access has also opened a new pathway in the field of science and experience through free scientific publications. As the readership of publications increases, the direct impact of articles grows, helping authors gain citations.

Open Access is a means to improve scientific quality through full compliance with traditional peer review and allowing public, collaborative, or community review. Interactive forums and discussions are more flexible within Open Access, helping the scientific community improve the quality of scientific publications.

Through Open Access publications, authors gain:

- Easy and immediate online access to works.

- Use of high-quality, fast peer review standards and rapid publication.

- Increased visibility and author presence through free distribution and frequent citations.

- Licensing and reuse policy through Creative Commons (CC-BY) license.

- High impact factor and opportunities to be cited, enhancing the author's research profile.
