Open Access means unrestricted open access to scientific and research information and data. Open Access documents can be downloaded, copied, shared, and printed with full copyright.

Institutional libraries have an essential role to play in the management of research results and data generated in institutions. Libraries provide the supply of literature and information to universities, research institutes, and engage in the acquisition and provision of print and electronic media in a professional manner.

Through the Electronic Information Service (EISZ) National Program, some subscribed databases have free Open Access publishing. Pursuant to the subscription agreement between EISZ and the publishers, the publication of Open Access may be requested by the correspondent of the articles, who must have an ELTE affiliation in order for the publication to take place without paying an APC fee. 

Support of publishing:  Financial support can be requested from ELTE for publishing at publishers which have contract with ELTE. Once the university publication quota has been used up, or the publisher does not have an agreement with ELTE, financial support can be requested from the Faculty for Open Acces publishing  in case the article is intended for publication in Q1 or perhaps Q2 journal with an impact factor.

 You can find more information about support options.
