 News from the Open Access world

Green Open Access

The 'Deutsche Forschungsgemeinschaft' (DFG) in Germany has started the 'DeepGreen' project which aims to support the Open Access rights regarding Alliance and National licences: Research publications, funded by the DFG, which are permitted to be free access after an embargo period. Karger Publishers cooperates with the DFG as a pilot partner. For more information about 'DeepGreen' please visit https://deepgreen.kobv.de.

What is Green Open Access? Green Open Access means Open Access after an embargo period. A Green Open Access article is not the version of record. It could be the typeset PDF before peer review or the accepted manuscript after peer review but before production. Please read more about Green Open Access in the next article.
