OPEN ACCESS POLICY

The Spanish Journal of Clinical Cases in Internal Medicine (RECCMI), as well as its sponsor the Spanish Society of Internal Medicine (SEMI), and all their content are open access. This you do not need to sign up or request prior permission to access full-text articles immediately upon publication. Our readers can read, download, copy, print, or link to full-text articles without seeking prior permission from the author.

We adhere to the Budapest Declaration which states " "free availability on the public Internet, permitting any users to read, download, copy, distribute, print, search or link to full texts of these articles, browse them for indexing, use them as data for software, or use them for any other lawful purpose, without financial, legal or technical barriers, other than those inseparable from gaining access to the Internet itself." "

INTEROPERABILITY PROTOCOL

The journal incorporates interoperability protocols, which allows its contents to be harvested by other indexing systems, such as: databases, dissemination portals, directories, digital repositories and/or harvesters.  The journal uses the Open Journal Systems 3.3.0.8 (OJS) software, which guarantees the automated, transparent and auditable registration of all interactions. It incorporates the OAI-PMH (Open Archive Initiative-Protocol for Metadata Harvesting) Interoperability Protocol, for the harvesting of our metadata. The metadata of the journal articles are described using the Dublin Core metatags.

OPEN CITATIONS(I4OC)

The Initiative for Open Citations I4OC is a collaboration between scholarly publishers, researchers, and other interested parties to promote the unrestricted availability of scholarly citation data.

The aim of this initiative is to promote the availability of data on citations that are structured, separable, and open. Structured means the data representing each publication and each citation instance are expressed in common, machine-readable formats, and that these data can be accessed programmatically. Separable means the citation instances can be accessed and analyzed without the need to access the source bibliographic products (such as journal articles and books) in which the citations are created. Open means the data are freely accessible and reusable.

RECCMI supports the Initiative for Open Citations (I4OC), championing open science and transparent research. AJO’s manuscript references are made freely available via Crossref's Metadata Delivery services. This ensures global accessibility to our citation data, fostering knowledge dissemination, collaboration, and a more inclusive scholarly landscape.

Publication fees

The journal is free of charge as there are no publication or reading fees. The APC (article processing charge) is only charged when an article is accepted for publication and costs €120.00 (euros). The Spanish Foundation of Internal Medicine (FEMI) finances the remaining expenses, if any, via a sponsor.
