Duration: 2024 - 2025
TUM has entered into a Publish & Read agreement with the American Chemical Society (ACS), offering TUM members special conditions for their open access publications.
The following services are available through the University Library:
- Reading Access
At TUM, you have access rights to almost the entire journal portfolio of ACS.
- Open Access Publishing
As a "Corresponding Author" affiliated with TUM, you have the opportunity to publish your papers as Open Access in almost all ACS journals. There are no costs for you personally for Open Access publishing. APCs (Article Processing Charges) are covered by TUM and handled through the TUM University Library. If you opt for additional services (e.g., for color illustrations or extra length) with the publisher, ACS will invoice you directly for those expenses.
Mandatory Affiliation Statement
For cost coverage and the precise attribution of your publication, it is crucial that you indicate TUM as your primary affiliation and utilize the binding, standardized affiliation designation. Please adhere to the specifications outlined in the TUM Publication Guidelines for all your publication projects. Always use your TUM email address (@tum.de or @mytum.de) for the submission process to ensure that the publisher correctly affiliates you with TUM.
