How will my book be distributed? In which databases and platforms will my book be listed?

As a result of our global network and well-established channel partners, we ensure broad visibility and dissemination for our publications. Our books are freely available to view and download via our Online Library and Google Books, and are discoverable through platforms such as CrossRef, EBSCO, BASE, WorldCat, Proquest, Scilit, the Verzeichnis lieferbarer Bücher (VLB), and Ex Libris Primo. We ensure long-term digital preservation through the archive CLOCKSS and the Swiss National Library.

Furthermore, our peer-reviewed open access books are hosted in OAPEN, indexed in the Directory of Open Access Books (DOAB), and submitted to Web of Science's Book Citation Index (BKCI) for evaluation, on the condition that their evaluation criteria are met.

 

Reprints will be added to our Online Library and are listed in the Directory of Open Access Books (DOAB). We work with a major distribution service to ensure our reprint titles are listed on important wholesaler and retailer sites.
