How does an author publish an Open Access article?

When submitting a manuscript, a corresponding author:

  • must select his/her institution in the Author Information step (Select & Validate Institution),
  • in the Publication Charges and Funding step, he/she can then select Open Access as part of an Institutional agreement.

If the article is accepted for publication, the system verifies the legitimacy of the request and the status of the Read and Publish contract. If the tokens run out (unlikely), the author will be contacted for further action.
