http://www.liebertpub.com/global/pressrelease/new-liebert-author-advocacy-program-laap-promotes-scholarly-publishing/1158/
New Rochelle, NY, November 12, 2012—Mary Ann Liebert, Inc., publishers
is proud to launch the Liebert Author Advocacy Program (LAAP), an
innovative membership program for academic, corporate, and funding
institutions designed to support Open Access (OA) and enhance the
visibility and share-ability of academic research. The LAAP and
associated AuthorCite™ portal provide a cost-effective way to support
OA publishing for affiliated researchers, as well as a dedicated
platform to archive, promote, and share OA articles published in any
Liebert journal.
LAAP member institutions receive a 25% discount on OA article
processing charges (APC) for research published in any Liebert
journal; a customized microsite to highlight published OA articles;
immediate global access to peer-reviewed OA articles on major indexing
services; and complimentary access to the AuthorCite™ platform for OA
authors publishing in Liebert journals. AuthorCite™ is a robust online
marketing platform that enables authors to build professional
visibility and enhance the impact of their research. Participating
LAAP institutions are also eligible for a 10% discount on the
subscription list price of any Liebert journal purchased directly from
the publisher. LAAP participants pay a flat annual membership fee
based on the number of full-time faculty and/or researchers at their
institution.
“We are committed to flexible, innovative publishing services that
facilitate Open Access to original research articles, alongside
value-added premium journal content,” says Mary Ann Liebert, president
of Mary Ann Liebert, Inc., publishers. “The launch of our Liebert
Author Advocacy Program serves to advance research discovery,
scholarly exchange, and, ultimately, the impact of original research
contributions.”
