Open Access Policy
Unless otherwise indicated for specific material, articles published by DLHD are distributed under the Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 International License (CC BY 4.0).
This license permits users to copy, share, redistribute, adapt, transform, and build upon published material for lawful purposes, provided that appropriate credit is given, the source of publication is identified, a link to the applicable license is provided where appropriate, and changes are indicated when modifications have been made.
DLHD's approach to Open Access is aligned with the principles articulated by the Budapest Open Access Initiative (BOAI), which established one of the foundational frameworks for modern Open Access scholarly communication.
These principles support making scholarly literature freely available through the public internet so that users may access and lawfully use research without price barriers or unnecessary technical restrictions, subject to applicable copyright and licensing conditions.
Read the BOAI Declaration ↗The final Version of Record is made openly accessible through the official DLHD website together with its definitive bibliographic metadata. Where corrections, retractions, expressions of concern, or other post-publication notices become necessary, the scholarly record will be updated transparently in accordance with the journal's applicable post-publication policies.
Authors are responsible for ensuring that third-party figures, photographs, tables, instruments, scales, datasets, illustrations, or other copyrighted material included in a manuscript may lawfully be reproduced. Material that is excluded from the article's Creative Commons license should be clearly identified. Additional permission from the relevant rights holder may be required for reuse.
The journal's Open Access model does not influence manuscript selection, reviewer recommendations, editorial assessment, or acceptance decisions. Manuscripts are evaluated according to scholarly merit, originality, methodological rigor, relevance to DLHD's scope, research integrity, ethical compliance, and the independent peer-review record.
Open Access concerns the ability of readers to access and lawfully reuse published scholarly content without subscription barriers. Information concerning submission fees, article processing charges, publication charges, or other author-side fees is disclosed separately and transparently in DLHD's Author Fee Policy.
