As it reads in Resolution RHCS 1365/2017 of the National University of Córdoba (UNC), "free public access to scientific-technological production contributes to the advancement of science, to productive innovation, to associativity and collaborative culture, to the increase of the cultural, educational, social and economic heritage of our country and to the advancement of knowledge" (p. 112). From Alma Mater, we are confident that Open Access policies contribute to the democratization of knowledge, to guarantee instances of collective participation, and to increase the visibility of UNC´'s educational, scientific and cultural production.

Alma Mater does not charge any kind of fee to authors for the publication of texts.
