Update on the Open Access agreement with Elsevier

The Hellenic Academic Libraries Link (HEAL-Link) has just activated the transformative agreement (read & publish) with Elsevier.

This provides the opportunity to all members of the Greek Academic and research community to publish their work under open access, with total waiver from publication costs. At the same time, access to the publisher’s electronic content is maintained.This agreement had been a long-standing request of the community and it is an important step towards enhancing the dissemination of knowledge and scientific research, both to researchers and to the general public.

At the same time, the agreement strengthens the support of the institutional and scientific work of HEAL-Link, providing the academic and research community with the opportunity to contribute to the development and dissemination, as well as to the democratisation of scientific knowledge at the lowest possible cost.
