For the expansion of Open Access publications at the University of Erfurt

"This is good news for our university," says a delighted Professor Benedikt Kranemann, Vice President for Research and Graduate Services. "Because it will allow us to further advance the transformation of scientific publishing towards open access and make our local research accessible to even more people free of charge on the Internet."

The funding phase will start at the beginning of 2023, and corresponding applications from scientists at the University of Erfurt who would like to publish their work Open Access can be submitted to the library on an ongoing basis. As an open access publication service provider, the Electronic Text Center (ETC) is happy to offer support to members of the university - whether they have questions about the Open Access publication of scientific research results as a first or second publication, about publication fees (Article Processing Charge, Book Processing Charge), about author rights for open access publications, or about Open Access in general.
