If you are a corresponding author affiliated with a participating institution within the CRUE-CSIC Alliance, the agreement reached means you can publish your article open access (OA) with fees covered by your institution.
More than 60 Spanish institutions are participating in the transformative agreement between Springer Nature and Crue & CSIC, meaning that corresponding authors* affiliated with these institutions are eligible to publish their articles OA with fees covered. The agreement includes more than 2,200 journals^ across the Springer and Adis portfolios. In addition, you can enjoy full access to all Springer and Adis subscription journal content.
The OA publication service for Universidad Rey Juan Carlos has reached its maximum article allowance. This means the agreement is no longer covering OA publishing fees until further notice.
The option to publish OA via Springer Open Choice is still available to affiliated authors, but the publishing fee will not be covered under the agreement. Authors should use alternative funding sources in order to publish OA or proceed with publication under subscription until the agreement is reactivated. If you need advice on what OA funding is available to you, please visit our funding & support service page. For more information, please contact oa.verification@springernature.com. Alternatively, contact the OA team at your institution.
