If your research got funding under the EU’s Seventh Framework Programme for Research (FP7) you might be eligible to get the publication fee covered through the new FP7 Post-Grant Gold Pilot. For more information on this Pilot see its guidelines here: https://www.openaire.eu/goldoa/fp7-post-grant/pilot. The central funding request system is available here: http://goldoa-pilot.openaire.eu. Otherwise, many research funders and institutions now have open access funds available. Please ask your department, library or funder to check your eligibility (you may be surprised!). For more information on funding feel free to get in touch at editorial@ubiquitypress.com.
Many thanks,
