Open Access Publication in the Spotlight (April 2021)

Each month, the open access team of the University of Groningen Library (UB) puts a recent open access article by UG authors in the spotlight. This publication is highlighted via social media and the library’s newsletter and website.

Article in the spotlight for March 2021
'The human corpse as aesthetic-therapeutic', written by Brenda Mathijssen (Faculty of Theology and Religious Studies).

In our Open Science Blog, the authors reflect on their motivation to publish open access, their choice to pick a specific journal and their experiences with open access and open science in general.
