What types of costs are not covered by the SNSF within the framework of its OA policy?

The SNSF does not cover the following costs:

• Any costs associated with self-archiving publications in an institutional or disciplinary repository (Green Road).
• Article processing charges (APCs) for making an article openly accessible that was initially published in a journal with a paywall (“hybrid” approach).
• Publication expenses for articles or book chapters that do not result from an SNSF grant.
• Costs of publishing textbooks, special issues of journals, conference proceedings, new editions or translations.
• Publication costs that are not related to accessibility issues, e.g. page charges, fees for colour printing, etc.
