Open access<\/strong> goes beyond the simple right to read for free; it gives authors the power to decide how their work is reused and exploited. This control is managed through the use of Creative Commons<\/a> licences<\/strong>, which ensure the visibility and impact of research in a legal and secure manner.<\/p>\n

There are various ways<\/strong> to publish under this model. In this guide, we help you identify which is the most suitable for your work and how to ensure compliance with the requirements set by funding bodies<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/section>\n\n\n

Publishing under cost – Golden Route<\/p>\n

Arrange for Open Access publication directly with the publisher and cover the cost of the APC (Article Processing Charge). We recommend that you check the transformative agreements available on IQS Library to cover this cost.<\/p>\n <\/div>\n

\n \n\n \n

Publish for free – Diamond Route<\/p>\n

Publish openly directly at no cost to the author. You can check the DOAJ for a list of diamond-rated journals that do not charge an article processing charge (APC).<\/p>\n <\/div>\n

Deposit in DAU or other repositories – Green Route<\/p>\n

If you do not have the funds to cover the cost for immediate open access publication, the Library will make the postprint (Accepted Author Manuscript) openly available in the institutional repository, always in accordance with the publisher\u2019s criteria and embargo periods.<\/p>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n\n
