Course description
Publishing your research results openly, in a form of preprints, Open Access articles and books, has become a new academic norm. Numerous research institutions and research funders are creating strategies and requirements to make research results openly available to everyone. But do you have an overview of all requirements? Do you want to know more about preprints? How to choose the best way to publish Open Access? Or how to utilise UiO’s publishing deals?
In this course we will introduce you to preprints and their archives, self-archiving, and Open Access publishing. We will also discuss different strategies of Open publishing.
