OPEN ACCESS POLICY
Jurnal Ilmu Komunikasi provides immediate open access to everything that it publishes. The journal believes that free public access supports the exchange of knowledge around the world, and that research on communication is most useful when researchers, lecturers, students, media practitioners, communication professionals, policymakers, and the public can read it without barriers.
This policy follows the principles of the Budapest Open Access Initiative.

- By publishing in MUKASI, the authors give the journal the right of first publication, and the work is at the same time licensed to everyone under CC BY 4.0.
- Authors may reuse, share, and distribute their own work. They may also make separate, nonexclusive arrangements for its distribution, as long as the first publication in MUKASI is acknowledged.
- These rights are explained in the Copyright Notice.

Under CC BY 4.0, readers may reuse articles without separate permission from the authors, the journal, or the publisher. The table below shows examples.
| Use | Example |

Open access is not unconditional reuse. Users must give attribution, give a link to the license, and state any changes that they made. See the Licensing page.

- Open access means that readers do not pay. The journal still has costs.
- There is no submission fee.
- The publication charge, and any other charge for authors, is listed on the Author Fees page. That page is the authoritative source for the amounts.
- Fees are never a reason to accept or to reject a manuscript. The editors decide on the basis of quality and relevance, as described in the Peer Review Process and the Publication Ethics statement.
6. Self Archiving and Repositories
The journal supports self archiving, with no embargo. Authors may deposit the published version, under CC BY 4.0, in the places below.

- When authors deposit an article, they should acknowledge MUKASI as the place of the original publication, give the DOI if one was assigned, and link to the official version on the website of the journal.
- A copy in a repository of the author does not replace the archive of the journal itself. See the Archiving Policy.
7. Discovery, Indexing, and Machine Access
Subject to the license, the content and the metadata of articles may be searched, linked, crawled, harvested, indexed, analyzed, and processed by academic search engines, library systems, repositories, citation databases, and tools for text and data mining. The services that index the journal are listed on the Indexing page.
8. Third Party Material
- Some items in an article may have separate copyright or license terms. Examples are figures, photographs, screenshots of posts on social media, news clips, advertisements, video, logos, maps, tables, datasets, questionnaires, codebooks, and quotations.
- Material that is excluded from the license should be identified in the credit line.
- When a reuse is covered neither by a legal exception nor by an open license, the user must obtain permission from the holder of the rights.
- More guidance is in the Licensing page.
