Library Empowerment Initiative — by Meer Foundation

Free Library Access
to All IJMEER Issues

IJMEER is a non-profit academic initiative by Meer Foundation. A portion of APC funds, after editorial costs, is allocated to library empowerment, academic services, and institutional enhancement across India.

100% Free — No Cost to Libraries. Ever.
Mission

Why We Do This

Meer Foundation established IJMEER not merely as a publishing venture, but as a mission-driven initiative to democratise access to academic knowledge. We believe that every library — whether at a tier-1 university or a small regional college — deserves access to quality open-access research.

Revenue generated through Article Processing Charges (APC), after covering editorial, operational, and production costs, is deliberately reinvested into:

Library empowerment and institutional access programmes
Academic services for students and early-career researchers
Institutional enhancement and scholarly capacity building

Library subscription to IJMEER is completely free. There is no fee, no licence restriction, and no time limit. This is our commitment to open scholarship.

No catch, no conditions. Library access is free because it aligns with Our foundation’s core mission: advancing education and academic empowerment. Registration takes less than 5 minutes.

How It Works

A simple, transparent model built on a non-profit mission.

Authors Pay APC on Acceptance
Researchers whose papers are accepted pay a Tiered Article Processing Charge (starting from ₹2,000) before publication. This sustains the editorial and production process.
APC Surplus Funds Library Access
After editorial, production, and operational costs are covered, the remaining surplus is allocated by Meer Foundation specifically to library empowerment and academic services.
No Cost to Libraries
Libraries register for free and receive institutional access credentials. There is no subscription fee, no renewal fee, and no restrictions — ever.
Open Access for Readers Worldwide
All IJMEER articles are Open Access, meaning any reader anywhere in the world can read, download, and share them freely. Library access provides additional institutional benefits and recognition.
