The open access publishing fee has been pre-paid through an agreement between the library and Elsevier. The agreement applies to open access publishing in a large number of hybrid journals in the Science Direct Freedom Collection and Cell Press as well as in Elsevier’s open access journals.

Terms and conditions

• You must be the corresponding author, i.e. the one handling communication with the publisher and journal.
• Your Umeå University affiliation must be stated in the published article.
• Use your university e-mail ending with @umu.se. The e-mail domain is often used to recognize your eligibility.
• Your article will be published under a CC BY license.
• Please note that the agreement does not cover any additional charges, such as page charges or charges for colour illustrations.
• The Lancet family hybrid journals (The Lancet, Lancet Infectious Diseases, Lancet Neurology and Lancet Oncology) are not included in the agreement.
