Open access proceedings papers benefit from all of the usual advantages available to Springer's computer science proceedings.

  • All proceedings are available electronically in PDF, EPUB and HTML formats through our digital library SpringerLink 
  • All proceedings are submitted to the main indexing services such as Scopus, ISI Web of Science, EI Engineering, DBLP and Google Scholar
Open access publishing in Springer computer science proceedings

As with all Springer computer science publications, open access proceedings volumes are available as PDFs and in full-text HTML, as EPUBs.

There are two open access options available for open access publishing in computer science proceedings

  • Individual open access papers in a regular volume (open choice)
  • Entire open access volumes

Authors interested in open access for their papers (open choice) should inform their conference contact as soon as possible. Special CC BY Licence-to-Publish forms should be obtained from lncs@springer.com. These should be signed and the full invoicing address should be provided as soon as possible. This information has to be available before the start of the publication process.
