The meaning of Æsh

Æ letters

A nonaccidental choice, Æ takes its roots from one of the letters of the Futhorc alphabet, i.e. ᚨ, which also used to represent an ash-tree, hence the name of the letter, æsc, or, in modern spelling, ash.

Ash symbol

An ever-green tree, ash is a symbol of power and endurance; accurately indicative of the influence of our authors and their lasting contributions to their fields with the works we partner with them to publish.

To be a leader when advocating for authors and access to their work.
A peer when measuring quality.
An outsider when industry standards prioritize profit over community benefit.

Mission

Providing an environment that furthers academic research to help create value-added contributions and promote them globally.

Vision

We aspire to add longstanding value to academic disciplines in particular; and the world’s Libraries of Alexandria in general.

Values

Adhering to our mission and established standards of academia – we remain Meticulous, Creative, and Measured.

Æ Publication Policy

Niche, selective, and quality-research-oriented, Æ Academic Publishing follows ethical standards observed by the academic community worldwide, in particular by:

Requiring blind peer review(s)

Reviewers, established academics from institutions around the world, help advise the publication for print or for recommended rejection (stage 1, YES/ NO), as well as opine on the content, research method and the quality of works accepted for publication (stage 2, peer-review), cf. e.g. COPE Ethical Guidelines for Peer Reviewers. In the case of an academic series, the proposal requires acceptance by the Scientific Board or Committee prior to the Reviewer(s)’ stage 1 evaluation.

Identifying the authorship

We strongly discourage academic ghost writing or guest authorship without each and every contribution clearly described and defined in standard academic manner, providing a name and affiliation of all contributors. Authors, methodology used, and references cited are always clearly indicated in designated spaces of every publication (cf. “Responsible research publication: international standards for authors: A position statement developed at the 2nd World Conference on Research Integrity, Singapore, July 22-24, 2010” by Elizabeth Wager & Sabine Kleinert).

Documenting intellectual

Documenting intellectual rights of third persons from reproduced material when applicable. The Author either provides or allows Æ to obtain written authorizations for the use of any copyrighted or other proprietary materials owned by any third party which appear in the Author’s book.

Documenting and reporting misconduct

All texts are blindly reviewed for manipulation, data inaccuracy, and faulty references. In an unlikely case of academic misconduct, the Author is informed on the fact and asked to either relate to or repair the suspected damage (step 1). In the case of a series, the Editor-in-Chief is also informed (step 2). In disputable cases, should no rectification be ultimately decided on, we reserve the right to reject a publication and inform the Author’s institution (step 3).
We care about high quality

At Æ Academic Publishing we carefully select high-quality publications and expert panels with intent to steadfastly adhere to a zero tolerance policy for:

  • plagiarism and self-plagiarism
  • ghost and guest authorship
  • conflict of interest
  • fabricated/ misinterpreted data; and
  • lack of academic skill (cf. Committee on Publication Ethics at https://publicationethics.org)
We detect plagiarism

We use subscriptions to Plagarisma and Quetext for plagarism detection. Ullamcorper vestibulum condimentum id per parturient mi hendrerit a vehicula a sit diam ullamcorper morbi vestibulum parturient vel ligula mauris velit vestibulum.
