摘要：Funders increasingly mandate researchers to publish their scientific articles in
open access and to retain their copyright. Universities all over the world have
set up institutional repositories and use repositories for the preservation and
dissemination of academic production of their institutions, including scientific
articles, reports, datasets, and other research outputs. However, in general,
authors do not find institutional repositories very attractive and accessible as
an open access publication platform since repositories and open access are not
part of the rewarding system. We expect that researchers are more likely to
publish and deposit their scientific papers in a repository, once they have the
appearance, recognition and dissemination of a scientific journal. That is why
we took the initiative to set up a repository based journal ‘University Journals’
in which universities collaborate. The paper will explain the University Journals
project and how the involved universities want to facilitate a valuable alternative publication platform that complies with Plan S principles and enables
publication and dissemination of all research outcomes. By establishing University Journals as a publication platform, university libraries are instrumental
(and crucial) in achieving the ambitions of Open Science, and universities gain
control over the publication process.
