Most, if not all, publishers approach the acquisition of original work through the transfer of publication rights of the author to those of the publisher. Hence, the copyright is given to the publisher vs. the author. I propose that instead of lessening the value of published works through Open Access, publishers should offer authors the opportunity to benefit more from their own work. My interest is to create a publishing house who LEASES original works while guaranteeing copyright to the author. Of course, individual agreements would include a negotiated percentage of compensation above publishing costs, length of lease, marketing responsibilities, etc. When you answer, please tell me if you are new to publishing, have published in journals, or have published books. It would also be nice to know how many estimated items in journals and/or book publications. Thank you!
Yes, your proposal of innovative publishing is really good. I recommend your model of publication for adoption by various publication agencies.
For your info, I am a researcher with more than 100 research papers published in various research journals. I also have published more than a dozen books to date.
Yes, that is another way of encouraging the authors to contribute more to the academic community. I would say I am a new researcher with about 8 research papers in various research journals.
Yes, your proposal is quite promising so I would recommend your model.
