Institutional partnerships
The Frontiers Institutional Partnerships program works with hundreds of research institutions, libraries, consortia and funders to streamline the way in which researchers are supported financially when publishing open access.
If you're a librarian, resource manager or are responsible for the enablement of open access policies in your institution and would like to know more about our institutional plans, please get in touch.
How we can help
The Institutional Partnerships program reduces administrative time for institutions and authors by centralizing communications and improving submission and payment workflows.
