Publishing

Open Access

When publishing research results in Open Access (OA), publication fees, known as Article Processing Charges (APC), are usually payable. This applies both to Open Access journals (OA journals) and conventional subscription journals that make articles available in OA.

APC discounts

The State and University Library Hamburg, the libraries of the University of Hamburg and the Medical Central Library (ÄZB) have signed special agreements or memberships with some publishers. These enable UHH researchers to publish in open access free of charge or at a discount.
