L’Université de Lorraine lance son programme de financement des revues diamant (The University of Lorraine launches a programme of financing of Diamond journals) / France

As part of its Open Science fund, the University of Lorraine's Open Science Steering Committee has launched a financing programme for Diamond scientific journals (up to €2,500 per year).

The budget allocated comes from funds resulting from the cancellation of subscriptions to Wiley electronic resources, supplemented by support from the MESR (French Ministry of Higher Education, Research and Innovation) as part of the Contract of Objectives, Means and Performance (COMP) of the University of Lorraine.

Journals eligible for funding should demonstrate their connection with Lorraine, destribute their content as immediate Open Access via recognised platforms (OpenEdition, Episciences, Erudit, Open U Journals, etc.), not charge APCs, have editorial evaluation and peer review, benefit from another source of funding.
