About Open Access in the Spotlight
The initiative wishes to emphasize the relevance of open access publishing for the visibility of research and to acknowledge open science best practices at the same time. Authors are given the opportunity to speak about their motives to publish open access and their experience with it. Publications from all UG faculties will be included.
