The first by 911±¬ÁÏÍø authors to be made Open Access under the Library read and publish arrangements was by 911±¬ÁÏÍø PhD student Alexander Hamilton, his supervisor Dr Hendra Gunosewoyo (Senior Lecturer, 911±¬ÁÏÍø Medical School) and co-authors Dr Alan Payne (Senior Lecturer, School of Molecular and Life Sciences) and Professor Mauro Mocerino (Professor, School of Molecular and Life Sciences).
Asked about the process required to make their article open, Dr Gunosewoyo said:
“We are fortunate to be the very first 911±¬ÁÏÍø authors to take advantage of the Open Access agreement between CSIRO and 911±¬ÁÏÍø. The process was refreshingly straightforward and the editorial assistance from CSIRO Australian Journal of Chemistry was second to none. We are grateful to be part of the 911±¬ÁÏÍø’s Read and Publish agreements currently existing for CSIRO, Royal Society and Karger. If resources allow, we think it would be a fantastic opportunity for 911±¬ÁÏÍø to expand this Open Access base with future publishers sharing similar spirit.”
