Posting Article Policy
International Journal Business and Entrepreneurship (IJBAE) supports responsible academic dissemination while maintaining the integrity of the formal publication record. As an electronic-only journal (E-ISSN), IJBAE publishes articles fully online and encourages ethical sharing of scholarly work in accordance with the following guidelines.
1. Preprint Version
Authors may post the preprint version (the manuscript prior to peer review) on personal websites, institutional repositories, or recognized preprint servers at any time. The preprint must clearly indicate that it has not undergone peer review and has not yet been formally published.
2. Accepted Manuscript (Postprint)
After acceptance, authors may share the accepted manuscript (the final author version after peer review but before journal layout and formatting). Once the article is officially published, authors must include complete citation details and a link to the journal’s official publication page.
3. Published Version
As IJBAE is published electronically, the final version of the article is available on the journal’s official website. Authors are encouraged to share the official article link for academic and non-commercial purposes to ensure proper citation, indexing, and visibility.
4. Institutional and Academic Repositories
Authors are encouraged to deposit their work in institutional repositories, research databases, and academic networking platforms for scholarly dissemination. Proper acknowledgment to IJBAE as the original source of publication must always be provided.
5. Attribution and Citation Requirement
All shared versions must include full bibliographic information and clearly acknowledge the International Journal Business and Entrepreneurship (IJBAE) as the original publisher.
This policy supports open scholarly communication while preserving the authenticity, traceability, and academic value of the official published version.
