[Library Network : for KU members] The APC Support Program for Accelerating Open Access

 On 2024-07-25 (799 reads)

In February 2024, the basic policy for the realization of immediate open access to academic papers, etc. (hereinafter referred to as the “National OA Policy”) was decided at the Integrated Innovation Strategy Promotion Council.

In the case of Kyoto University, researchers who will receive Grants-in-Aid for Scientific Research, etc. publicly solicited from FY2025 onward will, in principle, be required to register their peer-reviewed academic papers including the author's final version and evidence data that are the result of the research grant in the Kyoto University Academic Information Repository "KURENAI" and other services.

Kyoto University has already established an open access policy and has developed the "KURENAI". But, as a response to this national OA policy, to further promote the Kyoto University Open Access Policy, the Kyoto University Library Network will subsidize the APC (Article Processing Charge, hereinafter referred to as "APC") for researchers who make their articles open access.

For a list of eligible journals, article types, and other detailed application requirements, the following URL.

This project is funded by the grant "Open Access Acceleration Project https://www.mext.go.jp/b_menu/boshu/detail/1421775_00008.htm" for FY2024 only.
The support program will be implemented only in FY2024, and will not be implemented in FY2025 or later.

Please note that this program does not constitute the Library Network's endorsement of submissions to any particular publisher.
