Program Overview

Mission statement: The library publishing activities promote appreciation of university science, development of researchers’ opportunities for broad academic and public exchange of discoveries and ideas, and preservation and accessibility of research results and unique historical documents of DNURT. The main publishing resources of the library are OA resources and include two peer-reviewed journals, a peer-reviewed conference journal, and materials from two conferences. The main publishing services are aimed at supporting the production, distribution, and preservation of scientific works; as well as advising the university community on the creation of scientific works, their publishing in open access, copyright law, metadata, analytics, and sharing publishing experience with other university presses when transitioning to OJS and OCS platforms. The library publishing activities focus their efforts on maximizing the impact of DNURT publications within the international scientific and public sphere and facilitating the free exchange of knowledge.
