Precedence. By publishing your work at Download Academic, you are putting on record, for the world to see, that you have done whatever work you are reporting. In an age where research and publishing are often a winner-takes-all race to the finish line, this gives you an almost unfair advantage — as soon as your work is ready, you can "put it up" at Download Academic. Once we've posted it (within a week), anyone you may have been in the race with — whether you or they knew it or not — can only hope, at best, to come in second.

Inclusion. Perfectly good and important work often cannot find a venue among traditional publishers, for a variety of reasons. But you can publish it here. |
| 3. |
Visibility. In academia — or industry, for that matter — it's often important to be seen. Career and collaboration opportunities can come from unexpected places — but only if the people in those places know you exist and what you've done. Ever hear the phrase, "languish in obscurity"? Obscurity can lead to languishing. Publishing at Download Academic can put you on page 1 — and in many cases maygive you broader coverage than journal publication. |
| 4. |
Body of work. In academia, it sometimes seems a person is worth their weight in publications. Naturally, whenever possible, you want your work published in the top journals of your field. But in the many cases where this isn't possible — for whatever reason — why settle for nothing? If you've done quality work that you can't seem to get published elsewhere, add to your perceived worth by publishing it at Download Academic. |
| 5. |
Colleagues. It's much more rewarding to pursue your work in the company of those who share your interest in it, whether their own pursuit is along similar lines or complementary in some way. At Download Academic, your work can be found by anyone who puts the right terms in a search engine. Chances are, some of them may correspond with you, not only facilitating your research but enriching your professional life. |
| 6. |
Contribution. Who in the world could benefit from your work? For that matter, how could anyone possibly benefit? You can't know the answers to those questions. In some cases you might guess, but often scholars and researchers have been astonished by the uses to which their work has been put. Making your work available at Download Academic — which means, also, making it accessible to search engines such as Google — greatly enhances the ability of your work to be found by those who could really benefit from it. Chances are, you'll make a greater contribution to society. |
| 7. |
Convenience. You probably have a list of people who should be informed about your work. What could be more convenient than sending them a link directly to the page for your work at Download Academic? |
| 8. |
Economy. Our costs are low. If your work is very esoteric, this is an affordable way to get the word out to those few who might be interested. And if your work meets a substantial demand, our 60% royalties make it easy to actually make money.
