NOTE! The agreement expires on December 31, 2024. Since January 2025 it will no longer be possible to publish in OA under the agreement.

 

The University of Bologna has joined the national CARE-CRUI agreement signed with IEEE. This transformative agreement covers both the subscription fees for accessing the resources included in the IEL -IEEE Electronic Library database (journals, conference proceedings, standards) and the fees for publishing Open Access in the hybrid and full Open Access journals included in the same collections. Therefore, authors can publish open access at no additional costs.
