- RITHA Publishing’s main purpose is to create valuable contents to help scholars' community progress and achieve measurable results disseminated through scientific journals and book series.
- RITHA Publishing House is the publishing tool of Research, Innovation and Technologies – Hub for Academics (RITHA) which is a space for all higher education professionals, scholars and other parties with an interest in research, innovation, technologies, policies, processes and good practice in academic environment. In addition to providing quick and easy access to relevant publications, it also has concerns about training and development opportunities.
- RITHA Publishing House addresses academics, researchers, practitioners, policymakers and others who are deeply interested in intellectual debates on theory and practice or advances and challenges for understanding important societal functions, influencing a huge number of policies and practices.
- RITHA Publishing leverages emerging trends in the industry through a hybrid business model that combines traditional and digital publishing, open access, and personalised content delivery. This approach maximises reach and engagement by utilising both print and digital formats. The hybrid publishing component includes continuing to offer print versions of books while expanding digital formats to include e-books, catering to the growing demand for accessible and portable content. Additionally, implementing a print-on-demand (POD) service will reduce inventory costs and waste by producing print copies only when ordered, ensuring sustainability.
The open access model is applied to journals, allowing end-users to access content without subscription fees. Instead, revenues are generated by charging article processing charges (APCs) for publication. These fees may be covered by the author, the author's institution, or the research funder, helping to cover the costs of peer review, editing, and distribution. This model is particularly effective in ensuring broad accessibility while maintaining high publication standards. - RITHA Publishing is committed to upholding the highest standards of research and publication ethics, as demonstrated by its status as a DORA signatory, content registration with Crossref, participation in the SDG Publishers Compact, and digital preservation through PORTICO. The Editorial Policies, Ethical Standards, Peer-Reviewing Policies, and Publisher Duties support the collective efforts of authors, editors, editorial boards, and reviewers to ensure responsible scholarly publishing across all content types, including journal articles, book chapters, books and series, monographs, and conference proceedings. The Anti-Abuse and Publication Integrity Policy further establishes a publisher-wide framework for preventing, identifying, investigating, and addressing manipulation or abuse of the scholarly publication process.
- RITHA Publishing House's publication and editorial policies are aligned with internationally recognised principles of publication ethics and relevant guidance issued by the Committee on Publication Ethics (COPE) The Publisher retains editorial independence and makes decisions in accordance with its established policies and procedures.
