What types of publications and conference outputs does Pensoft Publishers support?

Updated

Pensoft Publishers supports four main publication categories: journals, books (both Advanced Books and Conventional Books), conference abstracts, and conference proceedings. If you are an author, editor, or conference organizer trying to decide which route fits your work, the choice depends on whether you have a single article, a full-length book, or conference material to release.

Journals

Journals are the core of Pensoft's publishing program. To publish an article, the site directs authors to the Browse Journals page, where you select the journal that fits your subject and scope. Journal publishing sits alongside the company's open access and APC policies, which are published on the site and should be checked before submission since they govern fees and reuse terms.

Books

Pensoft runs two book tracks:

  • Advanced Books — listed as a distinct product line alongside conventional books.
  • Conventional Books — the standard book publishing route.

Both appear under Products in the site navigation, and there is a dedicated Services for Books entry for authors and editors who need guidance on the book process. If your material is a monograph, edited volume, or similar long-form work, this is the relevant path rather than the journal route.

Conference outputs

Pensoft publishes two kinds of conference material:

Output What it covers
Conference Abstracts Individual abstracts from a conference
Conference Proceedings Collected papers from a conference

There is a Services for Conferences section aimed at organizers, plus a Conferences entry in the main navigation for browsing what has been published. Organizers planning an event can use these entry points to arrange abstract or proceedings publication.

How to choose

  • Single research article → go to Browse Journals and pick a journal.
  • Book-length work → use the Advanced Books or Conventional Books route and consult Services for Books.
  • Conference material → use Conference Abstracts or Conference Proceedings, and check Services for Conferences if you are organizing.

Where to start on the site

The navigation groups these under Products (Journals, Advanced Books, Conventional Books, Conference Abstracts, Conference Proceedings) and Services (For Authors, For Journals, For Books, For Conferences, For Organisations). Browsing the Books and Conferences sections shows existing titles and outputs, which is the quickest way to judge whether your work matches the format and scope Pensoft already publishes. Before submitting anything, review the Open Access & APC Policies and Editorial Policies pages, since they set the conditions that apply across these publication types.
