Downloadable: FREE HANDBOOK: What every researcher should know about open access

Navigating scholarly publishing can be a challenging task if you are an early career researcher. And navigating open access publishing can be even more so, because of the diversity of models and approaches, inadequate information about what it all means and how it works, and concerns surrounding open access models.

It has become ever more important to understand open access publishing better, with calls from funders and other authorities for researchers to publish their work through open access routes. So, this International Open Access Week, we bring you a handbook that covers the basics of open access and tips on how to publish your work in open access journals.
