How do I proceed as a corresponding author?

When submitting a manuscript to a PLOS journal, make sure that:

  • You are corresponding author.
  • You state your Stockholm University affiliation.
  • You use your SU email address.

This way PLOS will identify you as an author qualified to publish open access, free of charge.

When your article has been accepted

  • The university library is asked to confirm you affiliation.
  • After confirmation you will receive an email from RightsLink saying that you article has been accepted and that Stockholm University will cover the open access publication charges.
  • The article will be immediately open access when published.

More information, see PLOS FAQ.
