Freie Universität Berlin

Freie Universität Berlin is committed to an open academic culture. For many years, it has been advocating for open access and a fundamental transformation of academic publishing practices. Research findings should be available worldwide without paywalls. The university has an open access policy and has appointed an Open Access Officer and an Open Science Officer to coordinate the implementation and further development of these initiatives. The University Library supports this development with services and comprehensive consulting to ensure that scientific knowledge is freely accessible, globally visible, and sustainably usable.
