Like nearly 500 other institutions, Ulm University submits publication cost data to the renowned OpenAPC initiative. Until now, this data was submitted manually to OpenAPC via email in the form of CSV files. This has now changed: Following an adjustment to its reporting workflows, Ulm University has established fully automated data harvesting directly from the institutional repository OPARU. All cost data is provided via OAI-PMH in the openCost format through the DSpace 7 instance OPARU.
