Publishing in Open Access is more and more established within the German academia, and is increasingly recommended by academic and funding organisations (e.g. DFG). Nonetheless, there is still an uncertainty (and sometimes a bias) against Open Science in comparison to traditional approaches of research and publishing.

The Online seminar is a compact introduction into Open Access, and deals with the following questions:

• What are the advantages of Open Access Publications?
• Which different models of Open Access exist, and how can I find the right one for my project?
• What should I consider in terms of copyrights (cc lincences)?
• How can Open Access publications be funded?

Conditions of participations

We will use BigBlueButton for the Online seminar. We will send you a link to the seminar as well as the technical requirements one day before the course starts. The Online seminar room will be open from 13.15 on 29 April 2021.

The Online seminar is primarily aimed towards doctoral candidates of the Bauhaus-Universität Weimar and is free of charge. Other members and affiliates of the Bauhaus-Universität Weimar can also participate in the seminar depending on capacity.
