Presentation of the form for Open Access Systems Solution authors/  Prezentacja formularza dla autorów Open Access Systems Solution

The program allows authors affiliated with Polish academic institutions to publish open access articles in Springer hybrid journals under a CC-BY license CC-BY (or possibly CC-BY-NC if specifically requested by the author). The costs of publishing articles under the program are covered by Springer's national license fee with funds from the Ministry of Science and Technology. In 2010-2018, the program was funded as a supplement to the national academic license for access to Springer journals. Starting in 2019, the Springer national license agreement (renewed in 2022 for the period 2022-2024) is a transformational agreement, in which a larger part of the license fee is for open publishing, and a smaller part is a fee for access to subscription articles. This solution is related to the assumption that the share of open access articles in hybrid journals will gradually increase until the journals are completely transformed to an open access model, which is in line with Plan S. / Planem S.

Who can use the program?

The program is intended for correspondence authors affiliated with institutions that are covered by Springer's national license and have established an Article Approval Service (AAS) administrative account to verify the affiliation of their authors, see the list of institutions/ lista instytucji.  The affiliation of the correspondent author should be stated in the article header with sufficient accuracy to clearly identify with the above list. A correspondence author may provide more than one affiliation in an article, and it is sufficient that at least one of them corresponds to the list.
