Effective 1 January 2026, JOLTIDA will transition from its current periodical publication model to a Continuous Publication Model.
The Editorial Board has adopted this model to ensure faster article availability and to align the journal with global standards in scholarly publishing. This transition is intended to accelerate the dissemination of research and keep pace with international scientific developments.

Please note that the peer-review and editorial decision processes will remain unchanged.
Under the Continuous Publication Model, accepted articles will be published online as soon as the review and production stages are completed, without waiting for an issue release date.

We are implementing a major improvement in JOLTIDA infrastructure to simplify and enhance your publishing workflow. Beginning in January 2026, JOLTIDA will choose CP model for JOLTIDA’s operational needs.

Below are the definitions and rules for the CP Model:
