Lyceum Publisher was founded by scientists to make peer-review constructive, to bring the best technology to the service of the authors and editors, and to ensure that the active researchers within the field shape the direction of science, not publishers.
In Lyceum Publisher, decisions on publication are decided by an external Editorial Board that is not financially incentivized to accept articles. This ensures an independence between the publisher’s responsibility to grow and promote the Lyceum Publisher journals and the responsibility of the external editors to shape the direction of research.
Lyceum Publisher distributes editorial responsibility to the entire Editorial Board. Review Editors are empowered by directly interacting with the authors in the Collaborative Review Forum; Associate Editors are empowered to accept articles; Chief Editors are empowered to enhance the integrity of peer review.
Lyceum Publisher has developed the most advanced IT platform for publishing in academic publishing. In particular, Lyceum Publisher provides to all of its editors the state of art Digital Editorial Office and my Lyceum Publisher platforms. Here they can perform all the operations required to run a Lyceum Publisher journal, completely independently and at any time of the day or night.
The Lyceum Publisher publishing model is an advanced model that addresses many ails of academic publishing and guarantees editorial independence and distributed power for researchers to shape the direction of research. The model is based on profound principles around peer review and evaluation of research and evolves with community feedback.
