Invitation to an event in the Open Access Week 2015 for students, doctoral students, young scientists, professors, librarians and others:

Publishing with Open Access

Are you considering publishing with Open Access?
Learn how to get financial support from the University of Zurich & how to publish with an Open Access publisher

Abstract: When publishing articles, your own thesis, book chapters, a monograph or any other kind of work you have a lot of possibilities to do so. How can your publications be disseminated and read and cited as widely as possible? What does it mean to publish with Open Access and how can you publish with Open Access? What costs can occur and how can the University of Zurich support you financially? The second part will give you insights from the side of an Open Access publisher. Learn how to publish with an Open Access publisher. What is new when publishing with an Open Access publisher compared to a traditional publisher? The questions above are relevant for research of all disciplines. With the following presentations we hope to give at least some answers and invite you and your colleagues to join the discussion.
