It is recommended to use e-mail addresses from the UPWr domain.

Once the article has been accepted, the system will automatically recognise the institution (it is recommended to use an institutional email) and offer the voucher.
Once the voucher has been selected, the CC BY 4.0 licence must be confirmed.

Last update 30.10.2024: from the pool of 1363, 100 articles remain.
For whom?
The programme is intended for correspondence authors affiliated to UPWr.
What does the programme enable?
Authors publishing in selected journals, within the available article pool, are exempted from the APC fee. The programme allows authors affiliated to UPWr to publish articles under a CC-BY licence (or possibly CC-BY-NC upon special request by the author).
The programme currently covers 1983 hybrid journals from the Springer core collection and 20 ADIS hybrid journals (catalogue). BioMed Central and SpringerOpen open access journals are not included in the programme.
Article types covered by the programme: Original Paper, Review Paper, Brief Communication and Continuing Education.
How does it work?
The programme only includes articles submitted and published in 2024. If the publication meets the criteria and is accepted for publication, the corresponding author must indicate their affiliation in the Open Access Systems Solution form received, consistent with the affiliation given in the article. If, at the time of filling in the form, the pool of articles in the programme for the year is not yet run out and the system recognises the selected institution as belonging to the programme, the form will indicate ‘Open access at no cost to you’. After clicking on ‘Yes, submit for approval’, the article information will be sent to the programme administrator on the UPWr side for affiliation verification. The author will be notified by email of the result of the verification. Detailed instructions for completing the publication process and qualifying for the programme can be found in the presentation.
Detailed rules for the programme are available on the Virtual Library of Science website.

Status:

Authors publishing in selected journals within the available article pool are exempt from the APC fee.
Last update 4.11.2024: 44 articles remaining to be used.
For whom?
The programme is for correspondence authors affiliating to UPWr.
What does the programme enable?
The programme covers publishing in ‘Open Select’ hybrid journals (July 2024 list - ‘Open Select’ tab), and those on the ‘High Impact’ tab. The current list of Open Select journals can be generated on the publisher's website, where the ‘Open Select’ status and the Routlege and Taylor&Francis publishers must be ticked (the licence does not cover journals with ‘Full open access’ status or Dove Press). The programme covers certain types of articles.
How does it work?
If the publication meets the criteria listed above and is accepted for publication, the publisher's system will automatically qualify the article for the programme. If the pool of articles for a given year (including those in the ‘High Impact’ group) has not been exhausted, the author will receive an email from the publisher confirming his/her eligibility for the programme and a second email with a link to the Author Publishing Agreement form (presentation for authors). If the author indicates on the form that they wish to take part in the programme, the article will be referred to the administrator for affiliation verification and accepted to or rejected from the programme. If the article is rejected, the publisher's system will ask the author to fill in the agreement form again and choose either open access publication at their own expense or a subscription model.
