Libertas is pleased to announce that the number of article views on the Libertas website has now exceeded 8 million.

This milestone represents a significant achievement because articles have only been available online since 2005, although the majority of articles were published in the past three years, equating to an average of more than 1 million article views per year.

There are 2,870 articles available to read and download, equating to an average of 2,787 views per article.

This tremendous rate of viewing is partly thanks to the quality of manuscripts accepted for publication in Libertas journals, and also due to the extensive indexing we have created for our journals. We work with over 60 external indexes and directories to maximize the online visibility for all of our articles.

Article views are calculated in accordance with the Project COUNTER release 3 methodology.  This used by many publishers around the world to ensure that visibility data is credible and reliable for readers.  Importantly it excludes automated search engine and archiving visits, and also rapid sequences of views and downloads from the same reader to prevent accidental or intentional manipulation of data.
