• Applicant: Dr. Christoph Mülke
• Term: since 2021
• Project identifier: Deutsche Forschungsgemeinschaft (DFG) - Project number 491502892

Ludwig-Maximilians-Universität München is applying for funding to support Open Access publications in accordance with the DFG's funding regulations for the second funding period 2025-2027 via the "Open Access Publication Costs" funding programme. As part of the project, a central cost recording system for LMU Open Access publications will be set up and the necessary processes established. The funding platform "LMU Open Access Fund", which has already been developed in the first funding phase, will be expanded into a central platform for cost recording. In addition, the platform's interfaces will be extended so that cost data can be automatically exported to national systems for verifying the costs of Open Access publications. These activities will be accompanied by appropriate communication, embedded in a comprehensive range of information, training and advice services.
