Avainsana: avoimen julkaisemisen sopimus

Uusi avoimen julkaisemisen sopimus Medical Journals Swedenin kanssa

26.6.2025

FinELib on solminut uuden avoimen julkaisemisen sopimuksen MJS Publishing'n (Medical Journals Sweden) kanssa. Sopimus on voimassa 1.5.2025–31.12.2026.

Uuteen konsortiosopimukseen osallistuvat organisaatiot, Helsingin, Tampereen ja Turun yliopistot sekä Savonia-AMK, saavat alennuksen artikkeleiden kirjoittajamaksuista (Article Processing Charges, APC). FinELib-toimisto hoitaa artikkeleiden laskutuksen keskitetysti.

Sopimukseen osallistuvien organisaatioiden vastaavat kirjoittajat voivat julkaista artikkelinsa maksutta valituissa MJS:n lehdissä.

MJS Publishing on ruotsalainen avointen lehtien kustataja, joka perustettiin vuonna 2021 kahden tieteellisen seuran toimesta (the Society for the Publication of Acta Dermato-Venereologica ja the Foundation of Rehabilitation Information.)

Useilla MJS:n lehdillä on vahvat historialliset siteet suomalaiseen tutkimusyhteisöön, mukaan lukien Acta Oncologicalla, (pohjoismaisten onkologisten seurojen virallinen lehti) ja Acta Orthopaedicalla (aik. Acta Orthopaedica Scandinavica).
