The University of Bologna has joined the national CARE-CRUI agreement with the Association for Computing Machinery (ACM). This transformative agreement covers both the subscription fees for accessing the ACM Digital Library and the fees for publishing in Open Access in the hybrid and full Open Access journals, as well as in the conference proceedings included in the same collection.
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 and make it available as Open Access.
How long does the agreement last?
The agreement is valid from May 1, 2022 to December 31, 2025.
