Researchers at the Department of Earth Sciences publish books, but rarely in open access. With this event, we would therefore like to draw attention to the possibilities of financial support for open access books at Freie Universität, introduce the university publisher Berlin Universities Publishing BerlinUP and also show how to publish books in open access in the Refubium.

The event will be held in German.

18 June, 11:00 - 12:00 (Webex Meeting Link)

In three short keynotes of 15 minutes each, the conditions and funding opportunities for open access books at Freie Universität Berlin will be presented. Afterwards there will be time for your questions.
