Timeline for Rapid Publication

Bentham Open provides the fastest way to publish papers, normally within 7 weeks on average from submission to online publication. We offer high-value and fast paced review process of 4 weeks to time-sensitive manuscripts and the average publication time of 10 days from the final acceptance of papers to their online publication.

Stages Average Timelines
Submission to acceptance   4-5 weeks               
Acceptance to Publication          1-2 weeks                 
Total Average Publication Time
Submission to Publication          7 weeks                

Standard reviewing practices will be followed, which will not in any way affect the acceptance or rejection of the manuscript by the reviewers. The final acceptance is subjected to rigorous and unbiased peer review. Peer review commences from the receipt of the agreement form.

As all the articles are processed on priority, the provided timelines depend upon the authors’ timely submission of the revised articles and return of proofs within 48 hrs.
