Instructions for authors

All Transformative Agreements for the period 2023-2025 have already been renewed or will be finalized in the near future. We are gradually working on updating the instructions for the period 2026+. Thank you for your understanding.

CzechELib has negotiated with several publishers a discount or complete waiver of OpenAccess (OA) publishing fees for consortium members.

Important:

• Unless otherwise stated, the following applies only to corresponding authors from an institution that is a member of the relevant consortium.
• A corresponding author should use his/her institution’s e-mail address (not generic email addresses like gmail.com - correct identification cannot then be guaranteed).
• In the case of publishers with a limited number of tokens, please check with your OA administrator for OA publishing options.
