Open Access publication costs / 2023-2025 / Hannover Medical School

Hannover Medical School is applying for funding from the Open Access Publication Costs programme. In the transformation process from subscription-based billing to publication-based billing, the MHH, as a publication-intensive institution, must expect costs to rise significantly. This process will be additionally intensified by the corona pandemic, as this has led to an above-average increase in the number of publications. However, the aim is not only to cushion any cost increases that occur, but also to establish structures that enable central financing of publication costs. Retrospective funding is also requested to enable payments to the MPDL that could not previously be made within the framework of the comparative accounts.
