Our mission is guided by the following principles:
WK Publishers supports the principle that scholarly research should be accessible to readers worldwide. Our open-access publishing model is designed to improve the visibility, accessibility, and dissemination of published research.
Where applicable, articles may be made available under an appropriate Creative Commons license. The specific license and reuse terms applicable to an article will be clearly stated on the article or journal website.
WK Publishers recognizes the importance of authors retaining appropriate rights to their scholarly work. Copyright ownership, licensing, and publication rights are governed by the policies of the relevant journal and the applicable publication agreement.[cite: 4]
Authors are encouraged to review the copyright and licensing terms before publication.
We support the responsible sharing and reuse of scholarly content in accordance with the license associated with each publication. Licensing information is provided to help readers, researchers, libraries, and other users understand how published content may be shared, distributed, and reused.
Our goal is to make published scholarly content readily accessible to the international research community. We believe that improving access to research can encourage scientific discussion, collaboration, education, and innovation.
Editorial decisions are made independently and are based on scholarly considerations. Decisions regarding the acceptance, revision, or rejection of manuscripts are guided by the journal's editorial policies, peer-review process, and assessment of the submitted work.
Commercial or administrative considerations should not determine editorial decisions.

The specific peer-review model may vary depending on the journal and discipline. Information regarding the applicable review process is provided in the policies of the respective journal.

We expect authors, editors, reviewers, and other participants in the publication process to act responsibly and ethically. Concerns involving plagiarism, data fabrication or falsification, inappropriate authorship, duplicate publication, undisclosed conflicts of interest, or other forms of research or publication misconduct are taken seriously.
Our journals and editorial teams are encouraged to follow established principles and best practices in scholarly publishing. Where appropriate, ethical concerns and allegations of misconduct may be assessed in accordance with relevant guidance from recognized organizations and industry standards, including the principles and resources provided by the Committee on Publication Ethics (COPE).
