Journal of Tourism Intelligence and Smartness adheres to the Budapest Open Access Initiative and defines its Open Access policy according to the definition developed in the original BOAI: According to the BOAI, Open Access, “the scientific literature which has been reviewed by the reviewers, through the internet; it is freely accessible, readable, downloadable, copied, distributed, printed, scanned, linked to full text, indexed, transmitted as data to the software and available for any legal purpose without financial, legal and technical obstacles.

By “open access” to [peer-reviewed research literature], we mean its free availability on the public internet, permitting any users to read, download, copy, distribute, print, search, or link to the full texts of these articles, crawl them for indexing, pass them as data to software, or use them for any other lawful purpose, without financial, legal, or technical barriers other than those inseparable from gaining access to the internet itself. The only constraint on reproduction and distribution, and the only role for copyright in this domain, should be to give authors control over the integrity of their work and the right to be properly acknowledged and cited.
