The University of Bologna has joined the national CARE-CRUI agreement signed with Oxford University Press. The transformative agreement covers both the subscription fees for accessing the Journals Full Collection subscribed by the University of Bologna and the fees for publishing Open Access in the hybrid journals included in the same collection, as well as in hybrid journals that will be converted to Open Access.
Depositing in the Institutional Repository (Green Open Access)
For any article published in hybrid journals whose costs are not covered by the agreement, authors can deposit the Author’s Accepted Manuscript (AAM) (post-print) version of their article in the institutional repository or publish it on their personal websites. The publication will be accessible as Open Access after a 12-month embargo period.
How long does the agreement last?
The agreement lasts from January 1, 2024 to December 31, 2026.
