Free Publication in Springer WoS & Scopus Journals

29.01.2026

Dear Members of Ibn Haldun University,

At the Ibn Haldun University Library, we are pleased to share our ongoing "Read and Publish" collaboration with our publishing partner, Springer Nature.

The TÜBİTAK-ULAKBİM Springer Nature agreement became active on January 1, 2026. Under this agreement, our members have the opportunity to publish open-access articles free of charge in Springer Hybrid Journals.

Ibn Haldun University members can publish articles in Q1 and Q2 Group Springer Nature Hybrid Journals (922 journals) listed in Web of Science (SCI, SCIE, SSCI, AHCI, Scopus) in the "Original Article," "Review Article," and "Continuing Education" categories without paying an Article Processing Charge (Article Processing Charge–APC) in Q1 and Q2 Group Springer Nature Hybrid Journals (922 journals) listed in Web of Science (SCI, SCIE, SSCI, AHCI, Scopus).

When submitting their articles, our members must register their institutional email addresses with the extension "...@ihu.edu.tr" on the application form.

If an author whose article is accepted in the aforementioned journals wishes to benefit from the agreement, approval for publication will be given by TÜBİTAK-ULAKBİM. There is an annual article quota under the agreement. If the annual quota is reached, the author must pay the publication APC. Quotas are typically filled by July-August.

The first webinar of the year will be held on Wednesday, February 4, 2026, between 11:00 a.m. and 12:00 p.m. This session will cover:

  • Journal scope and acceptance criteria,
  • Current quota information,
  • Author & article identification processes,
  • Application and approval steps,
  • Funding application for open access publishing,
  • Tips and tricks for successful article writing.

At the end of the webinar, there will also be a Q&A session to answer frequently asked questions.

Webinar Language: Primarily Turkish, with some sections conducted in English.
