Dear Badan,

Can you give the name of journal? It is not possible that editor of the esteemed international journal could not publish the paper without author consent. Before article publication, author would be fulfilling the copyright procedures after that paper can publish. If any paper author has present national as well as international seminar/ conferences proceeding is not brought out. You can publish the paper in national as well as international  journal with given the reference of seminar/conferences. In detail you can ask suggestions for journal editors/senior LIS professionals.

 

With Regards

Dr.Akhtar Hussain

Sir,

I am sorry, but I will not be able to disclose the details about it. Yesterday, I wrote for the journals to withdraw my article from their journals.

I think right now you have nothing to do , but to withdraw the papers from the respective journals stating the facts to them.Please be very careful in future.

Make some changes in the article and let it publish in the International Journal if this is possible.......I think it is the wrongdoing of the journal to publish article without your written consent and copyright formalities........Now nothing can be done for the articles published in journal and conference proceedings.....else be careful..

Dear Dr. Barman;

Thanks for the post.

For the first case, in case it is an online journal, a rejoinder explaining the actual incident can be inserted from the part of the editorial board/member. In case it is a hard copy journal, the same can be done in the next issue with insertion that earlier the paper was presented in particular conference. In case the published material is not verbatim to what you have presented, you can always use the term modified version of the earlier presentation.in the insertion

 
Regarding the second issue, as I know majority of the established publishers abroad generally ask for copyrights from the authors before publication. I presume you too have to submit the copyright transfer form in favour of the first publisher.  However, since you have not signed any copyright clearance forms in favour of the second publisher, legally speaking, you have not transferred the copyright to that journal authority. But as they have already published it (I wonder, how can they do it without your signed consent!) you may inform the first publisher about it before they publish your article.

Regards,

Siddhartha S. Ray

Mr. Barman,

I am of the opinion that to publish or not to publish an article is the sole right and prerogative of the author alone and no one can infringe upon this.  Any editor simply cannot publish your article in his/ her third rated magazine/journal without your written consent.  This would otherwise mean robbing you of your opportunity of getting your article published in an highly ranked international journal.  If your article is published in a lowly ranked journal without your consent it is tantamount to tarnishing your image and reputation which is highly condemnable. you should sue the concerned person and claim for the damages done to your reputation and prospects.

Dear Dr. Burman.

I think there must be some communication gap. The point to think is that if a person steals your work, it should be published in his name. But in both instances- the paper is published in your name. Before giving you any suggestion i request you to ask both the editors and post their comments. It seems that neither you have sent them through e-mail  for publication nor sent any declaration form.

hello Sir,

I also face such a problem because my one paper published in the conference proceeding and then again published in the book and the author not inform me my friend informed me when the book available in the market.

if the thing published nothing in your hand but the thing which is in the process of publishing stage you can withdraw an artical from that journal.

that is only the solution from my site.
