We would like to inform you about the planned renewal of the Elsevier open publishing programme in 2025-2027 at the end of April 2025.

 

The programme is financed by the Ministry of Science and Higher Education and allows authors affiliated with Polish academic institutions to publish open articles in hybrid journals covered by the programme in 2025 (the list may change). Articles accepted for publication in the current year after signing the agreement will be eligible for the programme. The publisher does not provide for the possibility of retroactive activation.

 

The affiliation of the corresponding author at the John Paul II Catholic University of Lublin enables using of the programme. The corresponding author is the only author who manages the article publication process from submission to acceptance and corresponds with Elsevier on this matter.

 

The affiliation of authors in the Elsevier programme is verified by the local administrators – at the John Paul II Catholic University of Lublin: Ms Katarzyna Bojko, e-mail: repozytorium@kul.pl.
