This is included in the agreement
The open access publishing fee (APC, article processing charge) has been pre-paid through an agreement between the library and the publisher. The agreement applies when the corresponding author (i.e., the one handling communication with the publisher and journal) is affiliated with Umeå University.
The agreement does not cover additional charges, such as page charges or charges for colour illustrations.
Journals and publication types
The agreement applies to open access publishing in all hybrid and open access journals from ACS. The agreement covers articles that have undergone peer review.
Choice of licence
Articles covered by the agreement are published with a CC BY licence.
What you need to do
To be covered by the agreement, you must:
- be the corresponding author;
- be the submitting author;
- state a correct affiliation to Umeå University in the manuscript; and
- state Umeå University as your primary affiliation in the publisher submission system.
We recommend that you use your email address ending in umu.se, which simplifies identification of your Umeå University affiliation.
