The traditional publishing mode of academic papers requires the author to completely transfer the copyright to the publisher, and this exclusive transfer of copyright is usually regarded as a prerequisite for publication. In this process, the author, as a creator, transfers the control and ownership of communication and reproduction to the publisher, who can monetize this right and obtain commercial benefits from it.

This publishing mode is rooted in the pre-digital era in history, and publishers control the publishing and dissemination of academic papers. Now, the right of publishing transfer represents a delicate and tense relationship between the protection of authors' rights and the financial and reputational interests of publishers and research institutions.

Driven by the wave of open access, authors who focus on leaks usually keep the copyright of their works and grant publishers permission according to the type of articles and publishing channels. After the transfer of copyright, the content of the paper can be used in large-scale papers, but it should be clearly stated in the contract.
