Support for OA publishing
Authors from TUL can publish free of charge with Elsevier, Emerald, Springer, Taylor & Francis, Sage, and Wiley. Publication fees (APC - Article processing charges) are paid using tokens.
The current status of tokens can be found here.
Terms of use
1) The token will only be allotted for the publication of an original article that results from research funded exclusively from the TUL budget. An article that is even partially funded from an external source, such as a scientific research project budget, does not meet the conditions for allocating a token.
2) Research articles will be submitted under the TUL affiliation to https://publikace.tul.cz/.
3) The primary or corresponding author must be from the Technical University of Liberec, with the TUL affiliation indicated.
4) Use your TUL email address when communicating with the publisher.
5) Include your ORCID with the TUL affiliation.
6) Approval is on a FIFO basis (first in, first out). Ensure that tokens are available.
