Scholar-led publications - a field of action for sustainable Diamond Open Access infrastructures
In a 20-minute keynote presentation we will explain how the library can support the establishment of scholar-led journals or proceedings:
- What technical solutions can be considered for hosting journals or proceedings?
- What organisational steps do researchers need to take?
- How can the library help with set-up, organisation and funding?
Open Access services are already available:
(1) DFG-funded publication funds for Gold Open Access articles and books.
(2) institutional repositories for free online publications by members and affiliates of the university
(3) national Publish&Read transformation agreements
(4) numerous specific publishing agreements with an Open Access component, which enable researchers* at Fulda University of Applied Sciences to publish Open Access articles free of charge or at reduced rates.
In the one-hour online event, researchers and the library's publication support services will be able to talk to each other and develop ideas for joint projects.
An event for the Fulda Center for Entrepreneurship and Business Creation (https://www.hs-fulda.de/wirtschaft/forschung/fu3).
The presentation will be held in German.
