It is important to consider several points that will allow us to select the publishing house where the book will be published:

  1. Identify whether the publisher is multidisciplinary or specialised and choose our preference.
  2. Electronic availability of the publication. Publications that are published electronically, or that have an online version, are more likely to be cited than those that only have a paper version.
  3. Consider the evaluation criteria of the main evaluation agencies and organisations (ANECA) for books and book chapters.
  4. The open deposit of books or book chapters in institutional, thematic or multidisciplinary repositories will be valued.
