PRELO - Platform for Journals and Books of NOVA FCSH is a digital infrastructure with the mission of hosting, managing, archiving, preserving, and disseminating scientific publications edited by the R&D Units of the School of Social Sciences and Humanities of NOVA University Lisbon.

It is an open access platform, that allows users to read, download, copy, distribute, print, search or link articles in full text, chapters or books, or to use them for any other lawful purpose, without requesting prior authorisation from the journal, collection or authors, provided that proper reference is made to the publication and in accordance with the licence assigned to the content.

Manuscripts are subjected to a sound peer review process, defined by the journal’s or collection Editorial Boards, as a guarantee of scientific quality.

PRELO is committed to promote Open Science and it is aligned with the Principles of Transparency and Best Practice in Scholarly Publishing established by the Committee on Publication Ethics (COPE), the Directory of Open Access Journals (DOAJ) and the Open Access Scholarly Publishers Association (OASPA).
