Insight publishes peer-reviewed papers in biology and geology. Its aim is to make scholarly articles widely available at no or minimal cost. Papers are published either on our web site or by CD or DVD. There are no charges for papers on the web site. There may be modest author charges for CD and DVD based publications to cover the cost of producing and distributing these media.
Internet based publications are normally produced in PDF format. This format produces documents that may be easily viewed on the web, searched for any words or character strings, or printed. The text of Internet documents is also put onto the web as an HTML file because such files are easily retrieved by Web based search engines. Each such HTML file contains a link to the relevant PDF format document with text and illustrations. Abstracts of CD or DVD based publications are put onto the web site as HTML files so that they may be searched for through the Internet.
Authors may use high-quality illustrations, both in black and white and in color, and may include supplementary materials with articles such as phylogenetic data matrices, and geographic databases used in research. If desired, articles may be accompanied by links to the author’s home pages.
Publications in INSIGHT are licensed under an open access Creative Commons License. Authors who decide to permit subsequent inclusion of a paper in a more inclusive publication are requested to provide notice to the editor of INSIGHT.
