Aims & Scope

RTI Press is a global publisher of peer-reviewed, open-access publications. We publish on a broad range of topics reflecting RTI’s multidisciplinary research, expertise in social and laboratory sciences, and extensive international activities. Our publications inform national and international research, scientific discussions, and policy debates. RTI International funds RTI Press as a means of sharing research and practical knowledge to improve the human condition.

The RTI Books Series consists of books on a broad range of topics reflecting RTI’s multidisciplinary research, expertise in social and laboratory sciences, and extensive international activities. Books are sequentially numbered and designated with the year and month of release (i.e., BK-number-year+month. For example, BK-0027-2301). 

Open Access

RTI Press is a Diamond Open Access publisher; neither authors nor readers pay for our publications. RTI Press (i.e., RTI International) copyrights all sole-published publications and makes them available as free downloads under a Creative Commons license (CC BY-NC-ND 4.0). More information is available in our Open Access Policy. RTI Press will consider submissions that have been previously made available as preprints, as long as authors retain copyright of those preprints (for more information on RTI Press's preprints policy, see Sherpa Romeo). Books are archived in the Carolina Digital Repository.

Submissions

As RTI Press strives to reach a general audience, authors are invited to submit manuscripts that are clearly and concisely written without jargon or overly technical language. All submitted manuscripts are screened for plagiarism and must not be concurrently under review elsewhere. RTI Press does not charge fees to authors for peer-reviewed publications. To submit a manuscript to RTI Press, see our instructions for authors. Authors interested in submitting a manuscript for a book must first prepare a formal proposal to RTI Press, using this book proposal template.

For questions about RTI Press policies and potential submissions, contact Anna Wetterberg, Senior Manager, rtipress@rti.org.
