Scientific publishing is one of the core tasks of scientists in order to document and present the results of their own research. Today, adequate scientific publishing includes not only the selection of a suitable form and place of publication, but also the securing of usage rights as well as free access (open access) to published research results. The lecture will focus on how to find a suitable publication medium, what open access means and which paths lead to open access publication.
