NIH wants to cap publication fees for publicly funded research
On July 8, the National Institutes of Health (NIH) announced a proposed new policy aimed at capping the publication fees that scientific publishers can charge researchers funded by the NIH. This measure seeks to curb excessive profits made at the expense of the scientific community by major publishers, particularly through the use of "hybrid" journal models. The proposal reinforces the NIH's commitment to Open Science and aligns with their goal of promoting transparent and universally accessible research.

Cramming Period - Libraries & study rooms
From Monday July 28 to Friday August 29*, the "cramming period" policy will be applied to libraries and study rooms to enable you to study in the best possible conditions.
- During this period, study in the library is reserved for ULiège and CHU members due to the overcrowding. Your student card gives you access to our areas and services: remember to take it with you on every visit. You may be asked to show it at any time.
- You must reserve seats in some of our libraries (see below).
