Licenses, repositories and fees

All publications on the journal's website are available under the Creative Commons Attribution-Share Alike 4.0 International license (see the full license text). If others remix, adapt, or build upon the material, they must license the modified material under identical terms.

For the reader, this means that the magazine's content is free to the user and his/her institution. Users may read, download, copy, print, search, and use the full text of articles, as well as use them for any purpose permitted by law without having to seek the consent of the publisher or author. This is in line with the BOAI definition of open access.

Repository policy 

1. Kultura i Wychowanie ("Culture and Education”) allows authors to deposit different versions of their articles in repositories of their choice, according to the following rules:

   Authors are permitted to:

   • deposit the submitted version (preprint) at any time – in institutional, subject-specific, or personal repositories;
   • deposit the accepted version (postprint) 6 months after the date of publication;
   • deposit the published version (version of record) immediately upon publication.

   Authors are encouraged to include full bibliographic details and a link to the published version on the journal’s website when depositing any version.

   The 6-month embargo on depositing the accepted version (postprint) reflects our commitment to ensuring consistency between the final published version and any archived versions. This policy helps promote the citation of the version of record that has undergone professional copyediting, typesetting, and author approval. It is also a transitional solution, balancing our open-access mission with the available editorial resources. The embargo period may be revised as the journal’s infrastructure evolves.
