Researchers working at any organisation participating in the Bibsam consortium will be able to publish articles in PLOS journals free of charge. The research funders cover the cost.
The four research funders Swedish Research Council, Forte, Formas, and Vinnova have decided to jointly fund publishing with publishers who only publish fully open access journals during 2024 and 2025. This means that researchers at Umeå University can publish articles in PLOS journals free of charge. The same conditions apply to all researchers linked to an organisation in the Bibsam consortium.
