What is Open Access?

Open access means that scientific literature is accessible, readable, recorded, copied, printed, scanned, linked to full text, indexed, transmitted to the software as data, and available to the public free of charge, without financial, legal and technical barriers. . Rapidly rising costs, the transfer of scientific communication to wider platforms, the need to increase research impact and protect the digital heritage are the reasons for the emergence of open access. Among the main reasons why open access is preferred are the liberation of scientific knowledge by removing financial and legal obstacles, providing the right to "fair use", increasing the scientific impact of the study by increasing its recognition and visibility, its effect on the increase of citation rates and the fact that researchers have a wider view of the literature.
