Copyright and Permissions
Copyright Policy
Copyright is a fundamental element in protecting intellectual property rights and maintaining the integrity of scholarly publications. For academic journals like IJCRT, understanding copyright implications is vital for authors, readers, and the journal itself.
Copyright Note:
Copyright provides authors with exclusive rights to their original works, including scientific papers and research articles. This includes control over reproduction, distribution, and adaptation. In journals like IJCRT, while authors retain certain rights, copyright for published content and journal papers is held by the journal. This system ensures proper dissemination and protection of published works.
Implications Compared to Scopus Indexed Journals and UGC CARE List Journals:
- Scopus Indexed Journals: Many Scopus indexed journals, like IJCRT, also hold copyright for published works. However, copyright policies may vary by journal. Authors should review the specific copyright policies of Scopus indexed journals for detailed implications.
- UGC CARE List Journals: Journals listed in the UGC CARE list, including IJCRT, generally retain copyright for published contents. The UGC may have additional guidelines or requirements regarding copyright and permissions for journals in their database. Authors and users should be aware of any specific policies set by the UGC.
