Author's monograph publication

Author's monograph

One of the activities of the Scientific Cooperation Center "Interactive plus" is the publication of scientific monographs. An author's monograph differs from a collective one by having a single author - one scientist. Publishing a scientific monograph is necessary to present research results to a wide scientific community.

An author's monograph is also one of the forms of reporting on research work performed under a grant awarded to the author. The "Interactive Plus" Center offers you high-quality scientific monograph publication at minimal cost. An author's monograph can be published in either softcover or hardcover; the main text block can be printed in black and white or in color (or with color inserts on individual pages). We also assist in publishing other types of printed materials: manuals, educational literature, periodicals, and other working materials in any print run and within short timeframes.

Printing costs for book publication

depending on volume

For example, your manuscript is 150 author pages (1000 characters/page), consists of 5 sections, and you would like to receive 50 copies of the book in A5 format. The cost of such publication would be:

  • Typesetting: 150 p. × 40 /p. = 6'000 
  • Proofreading: 150 p. × 80 /p. = 12'000 
  • ISBN: 2'000 
  • Placement in RSCI: 2'500  + (100  × 5 sections) = 3'000 
  • Cover design: 2'000 
  • Printing 50 A5 books in softcover: 300 /copy × 50 copies = 15'000  (approximate cost)
  • Printing 16 mandatory copies: 300 /экз. × 16 экз. = 4'800 

Total cost: 44'800  (excluding delivery of printed books)

The cost of delivery of printed collections depends on the chosen method of delivery. We can offer you a delivery Russian Post, and courier services: DPD, СDEK.

Urgent scientific monograph publication

Often, when defending a candidate's or doctoral dissertation, there is a need to publish a scientific monograph in a short time. Our Center will quickly carry out editorial and publishing preparation of your scientific work and help publish a monograph within two calendar weeks without extra charge for urgency. We will select the optimal publication option depending on your budget and preferences.

In accordance with the informational message of the Higher Attestation Commission (VAK) of the Ministry of Education and Science of the Russian Federation No. 45.1-132 dated October 14, 2008, monographs written based on the author's original research and literary data may be classified as publications in scientific periodicals included in the List of leading peer-reviewed scientific journals and publications where the main scientific results of dissertations for the degrees of Doctor and Candidate of Sciences should be published.

Scientific monograph publication involves the following stages:

  • send the manuscript to the publishing house email or call the toll-free number 8 800 775 0902 and inform about the publication volume (for preliminary calculation),
  • decide on the binding type (soft or hard), format and print run of the publication,
  • after agreeing on the final cost, sign and send the contract signed on your behalf in two copies,
  • pay for the publication using any convenient payment method.

At the author's request, we will place on the back cover of the book:

  • author's photo,
  • information about the author: position, place of work, academic degree/title, achievements in the studied field of science, number of publications.

Monograph design according to VAK requirements

An author's monograph of research results implies publication before defending a doctoral or candidate's dissertation. The dissertation council pays close attention to the proper design of monographs, scientific and educational works. A monograph of scientific research must contain information about reviewers, which is a mandatory condition for publication. A monograph review must be written by doctors of sciences (at least two doctors of sciences) in the scientific or related specialty of the author. Complete information about reviewers must be indicated on the second page of the author's monograph. The main condition for recognizing an author's monograph as a scientific work is the correct (strictly according to GOST) design of the output information of the scientific publication: the second and last pages. Our publishing house's experience in publishing collective and author's monographs guarantees compliance with the necessary requirements for the release of a scientific publication. Example of a monograph: https://interactive-plus.ru/action_info.php?actionid=154

A scientific monograph should consist of at least 160 pages in conditional printed sheets. An author's monograph in the output information should contain information about the print run, which should be at least 500 copies. However, we understand that printing the entire print run at a printing house is quite expensive, so we can print not the entire print run at once, but only part of it without making changes to the book's output information.

Monograph design according to VAK requirements under the control of our scientific expert council guarantees you high quality of execution.
