Abstract
The purpose of this article is to introduce the Biblioteca de Autores Mexicanos (1896-1910), a collection created by Victoriano Agüeros, as a well-polished editorial project in which various cultural and literary processes of great importance can be traced: a) The specialization and consolidation of the editor’s figure, verified in the turn from the 19th to the 20th century; b) The development of incipient but effective publication, commercialization, and promotion strategies, and c) The conformation of a literary canon that gathered the written expressions of the nation in search of an identity, with a criteria that not only focused on the aesthetic and the literary, but also on ideological, economic and pragmatic notions.Authors who publish in Bibliographica automatically accept the following terms:
a. Authors will keep their authorship rights and will guarantee the journal the first time publication rights of their submitted work, which will be liable to a Creative Commons license that will allow third parties to share their work as long as they give appropriate credit to the author and the first publication is attributed to Bibliographica, it is not used for commercial purposes and modified material is not distributed in case of remix, transformation or recreation.
b. Authors can adopt other non-exclusive distribution license agreements of the published version of the work (for example: deposit it in an institutional telematic archive or publish it in a monographic volume) as long as the first publication is attributed to Bibliographica.
c. Authors are encouraged to self-archive their work (for example: in institutional telematic archives or their website), for this can promote interesting exchanges and increase the citation impact of the published work. (See The effect of open access).
