Continuous Article Publishing (CAP) is a publishing model for E-only journals. The main difference with existing models is that final articles are not published online ahead of a forthcoming issue (the Brill Advance option) but are immediately published online at their final location. Since registration of, loading of and access to journal content at Brill is volume and issue based, the implementation of CAP using the current procedures and possibilities, requires some special treatment. This is described in this document. Continuous Article Publishing means that each new article that is accepted and processed into a final format, is published online at its final disposition (so not first in Advance to be included in an issue later)is added to an (existing) issue. As a result, the annual volume of published articles grows article-by-article instead of issue-based. All articles are added to an issue of the current volume.  Within the an issue, every article starts with page 1, similar to Advance articles.

  1. Articles are published in a final format in an issue within the current volume. The order of the articles cannot be changed afterward. In case of multiple issues in a volume, for example the default an issue with general articles and a special issue , articles with articles on a specific subject. Articles cannot be moved from one issue to another.

  2. The list of articles in an issue is sorted on publication date, with recent articles at the top of the listing. As a result, sections within the listing (articles, book reviews, etc.) are not used. This would conflict with the principle “newest-at-top”. If sections are required, it would be better to create separate “issues” for each section. Thus, we could create issue 1: Articles, Issue 2: Book Reviews, etc.

  3. Each article starts with page number 1

The addition of next articles to the same issue does not have any consequences for the data in KLOPOTEK. Instead, as described in the next paragraph, the issue is replaced with a new versionarticle is added to an issue.

As mentioned before, the order of the articles can be set by listing the DOI's of each article in a meta_isssueissue.xml file. The format of this file is shown in the next example.

The previous procedure was based on a decreasing numbering of articles starting with 999, 998 etc., in combination with the delivery of an issue package with all articles in the issue. The naming convention described above can be implemented by assigning 001 as the article number of the next article. The only important thing is to add a complete meta_issue.xml file to this first article package, listing all DOI's of the articles that have been published already in the 2024 volume.
