Frontiers and the University of Salford have established an institutional membership agreement for open access publishing. Under the terms of this agreement, eligible authors from the University of Salford may publish in any Frontiers journal at no cost to them and with a simplified process.
Eligible authors will benefit from a streamlined invoicing process, managed directly between Frontiers and the Open Access team at the Library of the University of Salford, relieving authors of the responsibility of payment. Furthermore, the University of Salford and its Library will benefit from a discount on Article Processing Charges (APCs) for articles covered by this agreement.
This agreement will further encourage University of Salford authors to publish open access, increasing uptake of open access to the results of mostly publicly funded research, to the benefit of the scholarly community and the public at large, while reducing costs.
Authors can submit their article under this institutional agreement, by selecting ‘University of Salford’ as institutional payer in the invoice section when submitting their article. Frontiers will then verify eligibility with the University of Salford Library, who will then contact the authors to discuss how to apply to their open access fund.
