Publishing costs, including article processing charges (APCs) for open-access articles, are essential research expenses. Maastricht University Library negotiates advantageous publisher agreements that allow UM researchers to publish open-access in quality journals either for free or at significant discounts within our allocated budget. Some agreements include caps on the number of fee waivers available per year.

Please note that only corresponding authors from Maastricht University can claim these APC discounts or waivers. When submitting your manuscript, ensure a UM researcher is designated as the corresponding author to benefit from these publisher deals.

Maastricht University strongly supports open science through two primary routes: publishing directly in open-access journals (Gold OA) or allowing the library to share your paywalled articles through the Taverne amendment (Green OA).

Open Access Journal Browser

The Maastricht University/MUMC+ Open Access Journal Browser is an essential tool for identifying journals covered by our publisher agreements. With a simple search, you can discover available APC discounts and access detailed publishing information specific to each journal.

While we regularly update the Browser, publishers’ arrangements change frequently throughout the year. We strive for accuracy, but always verify critical information directly with the publisher or contact our team if you’re unsure about a particular journal’s status.

Overview of our Open Access deals and APC discounts

Below, you’ll find detailed information about each publisher agreement, including the steps you must take during the publication process to secure your Open Access discount or waiver.

To benefit from these publisher deals, you must be the corresponding author who submits the manuscript and use your Maastricht University or MUMC+ email address in all correspondence with the publisher. This is essential for the publisher’s system to recognise your eligibility.

Each publisher has different requirements and workflows for applying discounts. The following overview provides specific information about availability, eligibility criteria, and the process for each publisher.

Capped agreements
Some of our publisher agreements include annual limits (caps) on the number of open-access publications. The agreements no longer cover APC costs when we reach these caps before year-end. If your manuscript is accepted after we’ve reached the cap, publishers will still offer to publish your article Open Access, but you (or your department) will need to cover the full APC costs.

To receive timely updates about the status of capped agreements, follow us on UMployee or subscribe to our Research Support Update newsletter.
