Mini-seminar ” National Policy on Promoting Open Access to Publicly Funded Scholarly Publications and Scientific Data: Institutional Repositories and Read & Publish Agreements”

To all faculty, staff and graduate students of Kanazawa University
Kanazawa University will enter into Read & Publish agreements with four publishers (Springer-Nature, Wiley, ACS, and Elsevier) in 2026. When a faculty member, staff member, or graduate student of the University is accepted by a contracted journal as a corresponding author, the University will waive a portion of the article processing charges (APC) on a first-come, first-served basis, up to the annual publication limit set by each contract.
For this seminar, we will have a guest speaker from three publisher who will give a lecture on recent trends in open access and the specific steps to take when publishing an Open Access.
We welcome the participation of not only those who plan to submit papers, but also faculty, staff, and graduate students who are interested in Open Access.
