Our Open Access services
Wachholtz Verlag offers Open Access in the golden and green standard, i.e. publications can be simultaneously accessible on the Wachholtz site and on the site of the author and/or the institution. We generally ensure the high quality of our publications by means of a peer review process by our editors, external experts or a specialist editorial board. We are a member of the Crossref foundation and support the mission statement of the ENABLE! community.
In order to check that a text has been peer reviewed, the following steps are necessary:
a) Publisher receives manuscript or publication request.
b) Publisher reviews its quality and checks the qualification of author/editor.
c) Publisher requests from editor written confirmation that there has been an independent peer review carried out by experts.
- The peer review is organized and done by the editor; the publisher does not take part in the process and has no influence on it.
- Peer review reports are evaluated by editors, the authors may reply to them. Acceptance or rejection is ultimately decided by the editor
