Goal
The Licensing working group represents the interests of the UKB institutions in the negotiations with publishers on Read and Publish deals and Read contracts. We strive for the widest possible access on the most favourable terms. By entering into licences as a consortium, UKB increases the availability of digital scientific information at the most favourable price. The Licensing working group is the point of contact for the SURF Content Team, which drafts and manages the contracts for UKB.
For more information on ongoing Read and Publish deals, please visit the overview on Openaccess.nl.
