2. Gold Green
HybridFully OA
Authors deposit a version of their
manuscript in their institutional
repository or on any other website.
Making a paper freely available online
immediately on a publisher’s website
and published under a licence which
grants re-use rights to users. Often
involves payment of an APC.
Hybrid open access journals
provide Gold OA only for
articles for which their authors
(or their author's institution or
funder) pay an APC.
All content is open access and
made immediately available –
authors usually pay an APC.
Open access models

and proof correction.

formally declaring the article “published”.
