International Journal of Knowledge Content Development & Technology: Announcements

News: Dear Esteemed Members

2024-10-27T18:01:37-07:00

I extend my heartfelt gratitude for your continued support and interest in our journal.

Thanks to your active participation and the financial backing of the Korean government, our journal has steadily grown since its inception in 2011. Initially published twice a year, we expanded to quarterly issues in 2017, enabling broader participation. Additionally, we began recognizing excellence with a Best Paper Award in 2013, now in its 11th year. As of this year, we are working diligently to express our gratitude not only to our contributing authors but also to those who have generously supported the review process.

Our journal, sustained by your engagement, is committed to ongoing development and innovative approaches. To this end, I would like to share some essential aspects of our operations that are critical to sustaining our work: maintaining the paper submission system, XML and PDF editing, managing the English-language website, and covering publication expenses.

While we are dedicated to establishing our journal as a more robust publication, securing increased government funding and sponsorship is essential. Despite our best efforts, additional financial support remains necessary. Therefore, effective January 1, 2025, we will be introducing a publication fee of USD 100 for articles that pass peer review and are approved for publication. We kindly ask for your understanding and support regarding this new measure.

Once again, thank you for your invaluable interest and participation. We are committed to further enhancing our journal’s excellence and impact.

Warm regards,

Younghee Noh

Editor-in-Chief
