Does the university have a deal for open access in the journal of my choice?

Leiden University has numerous agreements with publishers that will offer our corresponding authors Open Access without additional costs and guarantees high quality.

How can I deposit my publications?

You can use LUCRIS PM to deposit your publications in the Repository. That way you make your research accessible to everyone at no cost.

Read how this works on the page LUCRIS and the Leiden Repository.

Leiden University's Open Access Policy
The Executive Board asks Leiden researchers to make their publications Open Access by means of an upload into the Leiden Repository. Read more on the page Leiden University Open Access Policy.

• When your publications have already been issued in Open Access by the publisher, you can easily make a straightforward upload.
