Open access book chapters

Solicitation # Gc965aD10MCUHTn3

The Swiss National Science Foundation (SNSF) provides funding for Book Chapter Processing Charges (BCPC) to support the publication of scientific book chapters in peer-reviewed edited volumes. To be eligible, the publication must be based on research where the SNSF funded at least 50 percent of the work, and at least one author must have received an SNSF grant or been employed in an SNSF-funded project. While the primary goal is to ensure immediate, free, and unrestricted Open Access (OA gold) publication, funding may currently be granted even if the volume is not open access, in which case the BCPC is intended to facilitate immediate open access for the specific chapter. Applications are submitted at any time via the mySNF online platform and must cite the original SNSF grant and include the publisher's invoice. The SNSF accepts the publisher's peer-review decision and generally pays the publisher directly, although refunds for previously paid charges are available if requested within six months of publication. There is currently no upper limit for the BCPC, though the SNSF may reduce unreasonably high charges. Funding is conditional upon the submission of required metadata and the inclusion of the SNSF's research funding in the publication's acknowledgments. The SNSF may exclude publishers that do not meet quality standards or the requirements of Swiss higher education institutions.
