As part of Open Access Week 2026, CHARM-EU organized a two-day online event for researchers and university library staff, showcasing opportunities and best practices in Open Access publishing through the experiences of its partner institutions. During the professional event, two staff members of the ELTE University Library and Archives delivered presentations, highlighting how the institution supports the implementation of Open Science principles.
In his presentation entitled Supporting Open Science at ELTE University Library, Tibor Móring introduced the activities supporting Open Science at the ELTE University Library and Archives, with particular emphasis on the services provided by the Department of Education and Research Support. He paid special attention to institutional support for Open Access publishing, presenting the library services and infrastructures associated with the Green, Diamond, and Gold Open Access models.
Liza Németh's presentation, Transformative Agreements at ELTE, focused on ELTE’s Read & Publish agreements supporting Open Access publishing and the related library services. She provided a detailed overview of how transformative agreements operate, the conditions for using publication quotas, and the research support role of the library and the Open Access Administrator in the Open Access publishing process.
The presentation slides are available on the website below, where a recording of the full programme will also be published at a later date:
