Articles published in open access journals like Human Parasitic Diseases have been shown to receive more citations that articles published in restricted access journals.
Libertas’ goal is to maximize visibility for all articles published in Human Parasitic Diseases. A recent review of previous research on open access citation levels showed that 87% of previous studies found open access articles were more often cited than restricted access articles.
The citation difference in favor of open access was notably pronounced in certain disciplines, with medicine having a 300-450% difference and agricultural sciences having a 200-600% difference.
This study demonstrates that publishing in open access journals means papers are more visible and more likely to be read and cited.

Interview with Professor Jamie DaviesThe quality of each of the reviews was outstanding, and greatly helped me make the paper so much more readable and valuable. The entire process was so much more supportive and communicative than with other journals I have dealt with. Congratulations on building a fantastic academic publishing organization.
