Open Access Policy
This journal provides immediate open access to its content, following the principle that making scientific knowledge freely available to the public contributes to the global democratization of knowledge.
Free-of-Charge Policy
The Boletim Campineiro de Geografia does not charge any fees for the submission, processing, evaluation, copy editing, or publication of articles and other texts, and there are no Article Processing Charges (APCs). It is completely free for both readers and authors.
Peer Review Process
The proposed articles will be evaluated by the Scientific Committee through double-blind review process. It is the responsibility of the Scientific Committee to assess the texts and contributions proposed and provide opinions in accordance with what is established by the Journal: "favorable without any restrictions," "favorable, provided that the suggested revisions are made," and "unfavorable."
The proposals will be sent to two reviewers. In case of disagreement between them, a third reviewer will be consulted.
Authors whose work receives an "unfavorable" review have no recourse.
Book reviews will not be subjected to peer review unless they focus on books dealing with highly specific subjects. In such cases, they may be evaluated by a professor who is a member of the Scientific Committee with knowledge and/or familiarity with the subject or by ad hoc consultants. In any case, they will be evaluated by members of the Editorial Board.
