Abstract
Short stories are often related with novels, essays and sometimes even with poetry, due to the fact that there are no strict limits in terms of extension, and that prose can be mixed with other types of writing. Without trying to define what literary genres are, this paper aims to establish that hybridization of short stories affects its forms of publication and, by extension, its editorial path. Consequently, it is necessary to review its structural aspects, the perspectives of the cultural context in which the short story is created, the importance of publications that gather several short stories – such as magazines and anthologies –, the contribution of short story bibliographies and some editorial collections that have opted for this gender.
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).
