Submitted studies are initially assessed in&nbsp;terms of meeting formal requirements, in&nbsp;addition to&nbsp;the following criteria:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li style=\"font-style:normal;font-weight:300\">subject: is of a&nbsp;scientific nature; the content focuses on&nbsp;the subject;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li style=\"font-style:normal;font-weight:300\">organisation and methodology: the work is based on&nbsp;reliable and current information and meets the criteria of a&nbsp;scientific register; footnotes are properly inserted; the subject is analysed cohesively and understandably; figures and tables meet high quality standards;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li style=\"font-style:normal;font-weight:300\">scientific relevance: the work includes original information that is appropriate to&nbsp;the current state of research; the subject and methodology are innovative or&nbsp;contribute significantly to&nbsp;the current state of knowledge; correct and innovative research methods have been implemented;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li style=\"font-style:normal;font-weight:300\">substantive aspect: the work focuses on&nbsp;the subject and provides reliable information; the text is based on&nbsp;the current state of knowledge; the methodology has been implemented correctly; the arguments meet the criteria of logic and rhetoric; the conclusions align with the results presented; the standard of English is adequate;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li style=\"font-style:normal;font-weight:300\">the work carries importance for the development of a&nbsp;particular field of science in&nbsp;Poland;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li style=\"font-style:normal;font-weight:300\">the work is comparable in&nbsp;quality to&nbsp;other scientific studies published by&nbsp;the OPI PIB Publishing House.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p style=\"font-style:normal;font-weight:400\">All studies must be&nbsp;approved by&nbsp;the Publishing Board to&nbsp;be&nbsp;included in&nbsp;the publishing plan.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p style=\"font-style:normal;font-weight:300\">Following an external open review (the names of both authors and reviewers are known), a&nbsp;request is submitted to:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li style=\"font-style:normal;font-weight:300\">accept the study without amendment<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li style=\"font-style:normal;font-weight:300\">accept the study if the reviewers\u2019 amendments are incorporated<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li style=\"font-style:normal;font-weight:300\">reject the study.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p style=\"font-style:normal;font-weight:300\">The reviewers evaluate studies based on&nbsp;the same criteria that apply to&nbsp;the internal evaluation performed by&nbsp;the Publishing Board. Authors then receive the results of the review. If it is recommended that a&nbsp;study be&nbsp;included in&nbsp;the publishing plan on&nbsp;the condition that particular amendments are introduced, the authors are obliged to&nbsp;introduce those amendments. The reviewers must indicate which passages or&nbsp;elements of the studies are to&nbsp;be&nbsp;amended.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p style=\"font-style:normal;font-weight:300\">If one or&nbsp;more reviews are negative, a&nbsp;study is rejected and the Publishing House declines to&nbsp;include that study in&nbsp;the publishing plan.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p style=\"font-style:normal;font-weight:300\">In&nbsp;justified cases, the Publishing House may initiate a&nbsp;double-blind review procedure, in&nbsp;which neither the reviewers nor the authors know each other\u2019s identities. The review procedure is the same as&nbsp;the open review procedure. All decisions on&nbsp;the initiation of double-blind reviews are made by&nbsp;the OPI PIB Publishing House.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p style=\"font-style:normal;font-weight:300\">Decisions on&nbsp;the inclusion or&nbsp;exclusion of studies from the publishing plan are communicated to&nbsp;their authors by&nbsp;a&nbsp;representative of the OPI PIB Publishing House.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\">\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Publication procedure<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p style=\"font-style:normal;font-weight:400\">The OPI PIB Publishing House accepts the following publication types:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li style=\"font-style:normal;font-weight:300\">scientific monographs, postdoctoral dissertations, doctoral dissertations, research reports, expert commentaries, dictionaries, and lexicons;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li style=\"font-style:normal;font-weight:300\">handbooks for scientists, students, and entrepreneurs;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li style=\"font-style:normal;font-weight:300\">titles that popularise scientific or&nbsp;research and development projects.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p style=\"font-style:normal;font-weight:300\">All materials to&nbsp;be&nbsp;published should be&nbsp;submitted as&nbsp;text files to&nbsp;<a href=\"mailto:wydawnictwo@opi.org.pl\">wydawnictwo@opi.org.pl<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p style=\"font-style:normal;font-weight:300\">Any work submitted for publication is presented to&nbsp;the Publishing Board. The board verifies whether the materials align with the scientific profile of the OPI PIB Publishing House, are structured according to&nbsp;the rules of scientific methodology, and meet formal and content-related criteria. Materials cannot be&nbsp;published without the approval of the OPI PIB Publishing House.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p style=\"font-style:normal;font-weight:300\">All scientific publications are, additionally, subject to&nbsp;external scientific review. Every study is&nbsp;reviewed by&nbsp;two independent professionals&nbsp;of the study\u2019s domain. No&nbsp;study will be&nbsp;published nor will any editorial work commence without the approval of&nbsp;both reviewers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p style=\"font-style:normal;font-weight:300\">Pre-publishing editorial works include text editing, professional typesetting and page formatting, proofreading, copy-editing, cover art, graphic design of both text and other elements, and printing. &nbsp;Information on&nbsp;every stage of the process is communicated to&nbsp;authors on&nbsp;a&nbsp;day-to-day basis by&nbsp;representatives of the OPI PIB Publishing House.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p style=\"font-style:normal;font-weight:300\">According to Article 5.3 of the Act on Mandatory Library Copies of 7 November 1996, the OPI PIB Publishing House is obliged to provide libraries with copies of any published title.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\">\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Publication ethics<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p style=\"font-style:normal;font-weight:400\">The standards of publication ethics followed by&nbsp;the OPI PIB Publishing House are based on&nbsp;the guidelines<strong> <\/strong>of the Committee on&nbsp;Publication Ethics (COPE), the recommendations of the Polish Ministry of Science and Higher Education contained in&nbsp;the brochure,&nbsp;<em>Good Practices in&nbsp;Scientific Review Procedures<\/em>&nbsp;(Warsaw, 2011), and general ethical principles of scientific reliability.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p style=\"font-style:normal;font-weight:400\">The OPI PIB Publishing House undertakes to&nbsp;ensure that all parties involved in&nbsp;the publication process meet ethical standards. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p style=\"font-style:normal;font-weight:300\">To&nbsp;achieve this goal, the OPI PIB Publishing House adheres to&nbsp;fair and ethical procedures to&nbsp;qualify, select, and offer opinions on&nbsp;materials that are ready to&nbsp;be&nbsp;printed. The decisions of the OPI PIB Publishing House on&nbsp;the approval (or&nbsp;otherwise) of any work to&nbsp;be&nbsp;printed are transparent.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p style=\"font-style:normal;font-weight:300\">When approving materials to&nbsp;be&nbsp;published, the Publishing Board must consider the materials\u2019 significance, originality, clarity, and transparency. They must also evaluate the materials\u2019 impact on&nbsp;the development of science based on&nbsp;independent reviews. The Publishing Board attaches the utmost importance to&nbsp;the credibility of the sources and citations to&nbsp;which authors refer. The board requires authors to&nbsp;deliver original studies and to&nbsp;avoid breaches of copyright. It rejects materials that violate ethical principles, including duplicates, plagiarisms, fabricated data, factitious lists of authors, ghost-writing, and guest authorship. Copyrighted materials, such as&nbsp;text passages, illustrations, figures, diagrams, or&nbsp;tables may be&nbsp;included in&nbsp;books only if their authors have provided the OPI PIB Publishing House with the written consent of the copyright owner.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p style=\"font-style:normal;font-weight:400\">In&nbsp;the event of a&nbsp;suspected breach of ethical principles, the procedures established by&nbsp;the Committee on&nbsp;Publication Ethics will apply.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p style=\"font-style:normal;font-weight:300\">We&nbsp;guarantee the confidentiality and security of authors\u2019 and other collaborators\u2019 personal data.
