Committed to the research of new authors, and those coming from developing countries
Cuadernos dieciochistas supports research by authors or research teams from developing countries, especially Latin American, whose texts are presented in scientific languages, preferably in Spanish or English.
We also show our compromise with first-time authors from all over the world who send in articles in the aforementioned languages.
Permission for self-archiving and digital preservation
Authors are authorized to publish their work on the Internet (e.g. in institutional repositories or personal web pages) always after editing (in no case before revision, layout or even at the proofreading stage). These measures are taken in order to encourage reading and citation of the article as well as to achieve a wider and faster dissemination of the published work (see The Effect of Open Access)
The journal is kept in the two main University of Salamanca repositories:
- «eUSAL Revistas»
- «Gredos»
This journal uses the LOCKSS system to create a file distributed among the participating libraries, allowing these libraries to create permanent archives of the journal for preservation and restoration purposes.
