RSC Open Access Experiment: Gold for Gold

Posted on by

Would you like to publish an article with the Royal Society of Chemistry in open access at no additional cost?

In 2013 the Max Planck Society has a subscription license to all RSC journals. With this license, we are receiving several tokens, which will allow articles by MPG-authors to be published in open access on the RSC website without paying the normal Article Publication Fee (APF). This is a new open access ‘experiment’ by the RSC called Gold for Gold.
Please find more details at http://www.fhi-berlin.mpg.de/bib/intern/oajournals.epl [internal access only].
