Support of Open Access Publishing
[Last updated: 2022-09-15]
Funding
The MFO covers the article processing charges (APCs) for articles in open access journals and hybrid (subscription) journals to participants in the MFO longterm programs.
Which requirements must be fulfilled?
- You must be the corresponding author of the article
- You have to be a researcher at MFO
- You must explicitly state your primary affiliation to the MFO in the published manuscript
Read and Publish Agreements
The MFO has signed up to a number of open access agreements with publishers. These institutional deals give members of the MFO (longterm researchers) a range of benefits, enabling corresponding authors from MFO to publish open access free of charge or at reduced rates in selected titles.
Many of those agreements are Read & Publish (R&P) Deals, offering open access for subscription (hybrid) journals. R&P Deals are known as transformative agreements and aim to transition towards a full open access model. Therefore they are in line with funder requirements such as Plan S as well as MFO's open access policy.
