    Proofs

  • The corresponding author is asked to check the gallery proofs. Corrections others than printer’s errors, however, should be avoided. Costs arising from such corrections will be charged.

  • Offprints

  • For each contribution the corresponding author will receive one copy of the issue free of charge. An order form for additional offprints, additional issues or a pdf file will be provided along with the gallery proofs.
  • Copyright

  • Authors submitting a manuscript do so on the understanding that they have read and agreed to the terms of the lOS Press Author Copyright Agreement in the Authors corner on our web site: www.iospress.nl.


  • Publication Right

    To publish a manuscript, the Journal of Information and Knowledge Management (JIKM) must ensure that it has obtained all the necessary rights. In the majority of cases the standard JIKM Transfer of Copyright agreement completed by the corresponding author will continue to be sufficient. If, however, one or more authors are employed by a government agency or the authors choose an Open Access publication option a separate 'license to publish' agreement may also/instead be required. To help manage this process, the JIKM has developed an online, interactive service that guides the completion of the agreement(s) appropriate for any given manuscript. Authors will be directed, via email, to this service after their submission has first been examined by an editor. Authors should be aware that accepted manuscripts will not be prepared for publication (copyedited or formatted) until JIKM is in receipt of all the agreement(s) associated with them.
