Partnering with Publishers for Open Access Publications

Would you like to publish your research results in open access with a renowned publisher? The University Library Magdeburg can provide you with comprehensive support.

Open Access articles

We support you in publishing Open Access articles by signing agreements with reputable publishers and covering the costs of publication. A list of our publication agreements can be found below.

For publishers that are not listed, it is possible to use our publication fund for Gold open access article costs.

The requirement for funding through one of our publishing agreements or our publication fund is that the corresponding author is a member of the OVGU

and indicates the OVGU as his/her first affiliation. If possible, please also use your OVGU e-mail address when submitting the article.

Monographs
