Open Access book publications

The SNSF finances the publication of scientific books that are freely and electronically accessible without restrictions or delays (Gold Open Access).

Peer-reviewed monographs and anthologies qualify for funding, whether they result from an SNSF-funded project or not. The costs for publishing services with regard to quality control, book production and distribution are covered by a book processing charge (BPC).

Researchers have the option to publish a printed book in parallel to the digital version.

You will find detailed information on publishing grants and open access in general on the open access website.
