On Jan 17, 2019 Mr. Guido Blechl from the library of the university of Vienna gave a presentation about the new developments in in publication sector. Not only that the number of open access (OA) publications will substantially grow in the future, the European "Plan S" initiative intends to enforce OA-publications at least for tax-funded research, by allowing publication only in a sublist of certified journals.
Since the best international journals are not in this list, the matter is discussed controversially. Although these new rules will be applied only as of 2020, our collegiates were informed about these issues, which are important for their future scientific life.
