Dear biologists,

 

Maybe you follow the university news better than me, but I fear that many of you did not notice this:

In short, Oulu university has done an agreement with several major publishers (Elsevier, Springer, now also Wiley) about the discounts for open access publishing. In many cases there won’t be a fee at all.

 

Best regards,
