BioMed Central membership

The University Library has signed a licence agreement for a prepay membership at BioMed Central. BioMed Central is an important publisher for open access journals in the areas of medicine and sciences.

By being a member the processing fees for all articles of journals from BioMed Central are reduced by 20%. When you submit an article to BioMed Central, please state that you belong to an institution that is a member. The procession fees will then be debited from a deposit the university library has opened.

Please inform the university library as soon as possible (by e-mail to openaccess@ub.uni-due.de), when BioMed Central has accepted your work to be published.

In connection with the DFG project "Open Access Publizieren" ("Open Access Publishing"), please note that the university is being in funds from which the processing fees for your articles in open access journals are financed, once the DFG's conditions for a support have been fulfilled.

Please find more information on your publication's furtherance in open access journals here:

Articles published at BioMed Central may be put in the local repositories. Please take advantage of the option to issue your works on the university's documents and publications server (DuEPublico).
