DFG-Project Fund Articles

The DFG-project fund differs from our classic FAU-publications fund by two aspects:

This funding model operates on a flat-rate principle. This means that eligible articles can be funded up to a maximum of 1.260,50 € (net) or 1.500 € (gross). All eligible invoices up to this amount will be paid for by the library in full, with no author contribution. Secondly, funding is not limited to Article Processing Charges (APCs) below a certain threshold. As long as you are able to cover the excess costs yourselves, you can request funding towards APCs in more expensive journals. Example: If your article meets the eligibility criteria of the DFG-project fund and the APC is 4.540 € (net)/5.390, 70 € (gross), the library will pay the invoice in full, subtract the flat rate of 1500 € and invoice you the remaining 3890, 70 €.

Please complete all mandatory fields so that we can vet your invoice:

GEPRIS DFG-Project ID*

Remember that all project publications in CRIS must always be linked to the respective research projects.

Are you a student/staff member of the university clinic?*

yes

Clinic*

Does your research grant include project-specific funding for publications?*

I have not applied or been approved for project-specific funding for publications. Thereby, duplicate funding is ruled out.

Funding Acknowledgements*

I hereby confirm that I have correctly acknowledged third party funding, e.g. of my research project (DFG default: „Funded by the Deutsche Forschungsgemeinschaft (DFG, German Research Foundation) – [ Project number(s)]“ DFG-Vordruck 2.00, 13.1, please take into account separate requirements for subject areas or graduate schools). I take note that an acknowledgement of the publication funding is explicitly no longer requested since it falsifies the underlying data of Scopus, Web of Science, Open Access Monitor, etc. and prevents the proper distinction between project funding and publication funding.

Open Access*

My article is published under an open Creative-Commons-licence, with CC-BY as default. I have not granted the publisher exclusive rights of use. (You should only deviate from the CC-BY licence choice if you are under legal obligation to do so.) .

I am aware, that granting the publisher exclusive rights of use (Caution: take note of the warning label “publisher’s own licence” in the Directory of Open Access Journals) can lead to funding being withdrawn (you might be required to pay back previously granted funding).

Open Access*

The journal is listed in the Directory of Open Access Journals (DOAJ, https://www.doaj.org/) .

Details of author participation

The University Library usually transfers the full invoice amount first so that the publisher receives his or her money quickly. If the publisher's invoice exceeds €1,260.50 net or €1,500 gross, the University Library will then invoice the author for the difference on top.

If the University Hospital finances this possible difference, then it usually needs a copy of the original publisher's invoice as well as the first page of the publication/publisher's PDF, a copy of the Acknowledgements mentioned in the publication (if these are not evident on the first page) and the yellow allonge for reimbursement. If you have any questions here, please contact the responsible third-party funding officer (Research Funding Department).

In the following text field, please provide us with the corresponding or a different address, for example your private address, should the possible difference be financed privately. In case of third-party funding of the remaining amount please note that we cannot issue invoices to addresses outside of Germany:
