Social Responsibility

InTech Supports Authors from Developing Countries

We firmly support the Open Access model and its principle number one - that all researchers must have equal chances. This is why we strongly believe that what we are doing is right and only fair. The lack of access barriers and subscription costs to our publications does not result in lower quality but it does mean a step in the right direction - a direction in which knowledge is not reserved for the chosen few.

At InTech we value our independence and operate as a sustainable commercial enterprise. As such, and in common with many other Open Access publishers, we require payment of an Article Processing Charge. However, we are aware that many scientists, especially in developing countries, may have difficulty in covering this cost due to a lack of financial resources.

We are able to support such researchers awarding exemptions from payment based on scientific merit. In 2010 we supported 361 researchers from the developing world in this way, and went on to support an additional 2020 researchers in 2011.

The fact that we allow some of the authors to participate without bearing the cost of the APC is decided on a case by case basis, this is done solely on our discretion.

InTech Supports the Environment

InTech is committed to protecting the environment through choosing efficient business process and minimizing waste and emissions.

Digital book publishing is not only a convenient way of publishing books, it is also an environmentally friendly one. Given that million of tons of carbon dioxide are produced annually from the production of books, environmental sustainability considerations favor digital book production over traditional print.

All InTech books are published both in hard copy and online, but we print on demand only. A large portion of printed books is never purchased, and therefore printing books on demand helps eliminate waste.

In addition, InTech's primary business is STM publishing. Alternative energy sources (wind, solar, hydro and other renewables) are topics that we cover extensively.
