ACS Open Publishing Program 2025

NOTE - The ACS open publishing program was closed on October 6th due to the exhaustion of the pool of 437 articles available for 2025 for all institutions participating in the consortium.

The program is intended for corresponding authors affiliated with UMK. In 2025, the program includes 90 journals published by ACS, including 71 hybrid journals and 19 open access journals.

The program includes all article types except: Additions and Corrections, Expressions of Concern, Retraction, In This Issue, Introducing our Authors.
The program allows for open publication under the CC-BY license without fees for authors of a specified number of articles accepted for publication in the current year (note: the “Manuscript Acceptance Date” sometimes referred to in articles as “Revised” is decisive). The pool of articles available in a given year is not divided between institutions, articles are included in the program in the order of acceptance for publication.
