Peer-reviewed literature is freely available without subscription or price barriers. Literature is immediately released in open access format (no embargo period). Published material can be re-used without obtaining permission as long as a correct citation to the original publication is given.

Open access publishing also provides access to research results to researchers worldwide, including those from developing countries and an interested general public.

Although The Progress publishes all of its journals under the open-access model, we believe that open access is an enriching part of the scholarly communication process that can and should co-exist with other forms of communication and publication, such as society-based publishing and conferencing activities.
