Conference: Affordable Open Access: exploring funding and free publishing options
Open Access brings to light the real costs of the publication process, and the gap with the prices charged by some important scientific publishers. This conference explores the alternatives and possibilities to deal with these costs, like becoming his/her own publisher or publishing monographs with financial support from SNF. A panel discussion then focuses on the challenges as an author and on the exchange of practical feedback by researchers. The event is aimed at anyone who publishes or will be publishing scientific literature.
