TU Dresden 2022 APC data integrated

The Forschungszentrum Jülich collects publication cost data from German institutions as part of the DFG programme “Open Access Publication Funding”.

When reporting their publication costs, the Technische Universität Dresden had agreed to share the data with OpenAPC as well. This data has now been transferred and integrated.

The Saxon State and University Library Dresden (SLUB) is in charge of the Open Access Publication Funds of the TU Dresden, which received support by the Deutsche Forschungsgemeinschaft (DFG) under its Open-Access Publishing Programme until 2021.

Contact person is Michael Wohlgemuth.
