The publishing imprint of ULB, Editions de l’Université de Bruxelles, is a Green Publisher according to the colours used by SHERPA/RoMEO : the publisher deposits the articles written by ULB authors, immediately upon publication, in the ULB institutional repository DI-fusion, providing Open Access without any embargo. This is done with articles published in collective books since 2008. For articles published before 2008, the authors are authorized to deposit the published version of their article in DI-fusion and to provide Open Access to it. Today, 225 publications from Editions de l’Université de Bruxelles are available in Open Access in DI-fusion.
In addition, the publisher also provides Open Access to complete books as soon as they are out of print: 168 books are freely available online in the ULB digitized collections Digithèque, the most ancient dating from 1970 and the most recent ones published in 2010.
For all publications available online, users can freely read, copy, print, download and distribute the articles for research and education purposes provided that the authors and the publication are properly acknowledged and cited.
