The Publications Division of the American Chemical Society (ACS) has signed a year-long ‘read and publish’ agreement with the Lithuanian Research Library Consortium (LMBA). This arrangement will help expand the publication of open access research by its scientists.
Under the terms of the agreement, researchers at LMBA’s three member institutions will benefit from full article publishing charge support to make a number of articles open access by the end of the agreement term. Each institution will also receive full access to all of ACS’ more than 65 premiere journals.
ACS supports the growing global interest in open access and to date has partnered across 17 countries and with over 300 institutions worldwide. ACS continues to provide researcher-centric solutions — programs designed to stimulate participation in open access publication across the global community of authors, researchers and ACS members.
LMBA helps its 48 members in Lithuania get affordable access to scientific electronic resources, promotes open access and seeks fair intellectual property rights conditions for using intellectual products for the advancement of science.
