Dear List, the State and University Library Göttingen(SUB) in Germany has recently started a pilot Project "Open Access with Springer Open Choice" on behalf of the University of Göttingen. The pilot project will operate until end of next year. The library and the scientific publisher Springer agreed on September 26th, 2006 that all papers acccepted for publication from corresponding authors affiliated with the Goettingen University automatically become open access articles accessable through Springer Link. The necessary payment procedure for this option is handled automatically between the library and the publisher. As open access articles they are available on the internet as full texts free of charge for everybody enhancing the worldwide visibility of Goettingen-based scientific results.
