openCost: the road to publication cost transparency

The DFG funded project „openCost" creates a technical infrastructure to comprehensively record publication cost data, make them openly distributeable by means of standardized interfaces, and accessible by well known platforms like EZB, OpenAPC or the the OpenAccess Monitor.

From Wednesday, 05th till Friday 07th October 2022, DESY Library will host the first international openCost Expert Workshop in Hamburg.

Besides presenting first results from openCost itself the main goal of the workshop is to create an opportunity for knowledge exchange between national and international experts in the field. It will allow them to present their perspectives in the area of publication costs and cost transparency and report on their experiences to ensure openCost is internationally adoptable. It also serves as a platform for discussion with participants from other institutions.

We are excited about the contributions from well-known international experts detailed in the final program. Registration is now open via the conference website.

Participation is free of charge, but registration in advance is necessary. The number of participants is limited to 60.
