Gold for Gold

Summary:

"We recognise that researchers are often being asked to publish Open Access (OA), but do not have the funding to pay for it directly. To support the funder-led evolution to Gold OA, and following a successful pilot scheme in the UK, our Gold for Gold initiative rewards all institutions that subscribe to RSC Gold with voucher codes to make papers available via OA, free of charge. Gold for Gold ensures academics can further increase the visibility of their quality research, whilst raising their institution's reputation. Early beneficiaries from the UK pilot include: the University of Hull, Queen's University Belfast, Birmingham University, Aston University and University of Southampton. We hope you take full advantage of any due voucher codes. For full details on how this project works, including information on how to claim and use your voucher codes, click on the Frequently Asked Questions link below..."
