What is Open Access?
Open Access is a publishing model that refers to freely available, digital, online information. After publication, open access publications are freely available on the internet and can be read and downloaded worldwide at no cost. To finance this business model, authors often have to pay publication fees.
There are various ways in which we can support you in financing your open access publications.
Where would you like to publish?
Journals and publishers
in a gold Open Access Journal (publication fund)
in the repository of TiHo
secondary publication of a published article
Consultancy services
Open Access affects many aspects of scientific publishing. The TiHo's Open Access Officer provides support throughout the entire publishing process. This service includes assistance in selecting a suitable scientific journal as well as assistance with the funding of article processing charges. With respect to the avoidance of so-called "predatory journals", the website "Think.Check.Submit" provides helpful information for authors.
