The Thuringian University and State Library (ThULB) is significantly expanding its portfolio of transformation agreements in 2024. This represents a further step towards enabling researchers at Friedrich Schiller University Jena to publish their research results in open access. The publication costs are borne by the ThULB, so that no separate publication costs are incurred for researchers at the University of Jena. An overview of the agreements with the individual providers can be found on the ThULB website.
