Open Access agreements with publishers
Conditions:
- The corresponding author must be affiliated with the University of Graz when their article is accepted for publication (this applies to all publishers except Wiley (for Gold Open Access), Frontiers, IWA and John Benjamins, where the corresponding author must be affiliated when they submit their article) and state this affiliation in the article (see the University of Graz affiliation guidelines for instructions on how to do this).
- The Open Access fees are not already covered by project funds or grants, (except for FWF grants, which are handled by the University of Graz).
- Articles with University of Graz funding must include the University of Graz in the acknowledgements. (Recommended wording: "The authors acknowledge the financial support by the University of Graz." or "Dieser Artikel wurde durch finanzielle Unterstützung der Universität Graz Open Access publiziert.")
- Articles with FWF funding must include the FWF in the acknowledgements of the submitted version of the article using the following sentence: "This research was funded in whole, or in part, by the Austrian Science Fund (FWF) [grant DOI]. For the purpose of open access, the author has applied a CC BY public copyright licence to any Author Accepted Manuscript version arising from this submission."
Eligible for funding:
- Fees: the University of Graz only covers the Article Processing Charges (APCs) and no additional fees (e.g. page charges, colour charges, submission fees). Please note: the APC is not covered for articles in PNAS; a discount is available on articles published in Open Access without delay.
- Article type: varies by publisher
- Journal: varies by publisher
