With the expiration of the 2020-2024 UNL-NFU-UKB-NWO-Elsevier agreement, also the Open Science pilot program will end. 

We thank all the participating institutions, the members of the steering group and executive board, and the pilot participants for their ongoing commitment that made this unique collaboration a success. In total 8 pilots ran with nearly 60 participating institutions. For an evaluation of the pilots please see: here

Please be advised that the pilots will be discontinued by end of December 2024 unless otherwise communicated with the participating institutions. 

If you would like to discuss the continuation of EquipmentMonitor, Author Disambiguation Service, and/or the (successor of) DataMonitor, please contact: Dino Venturino at d.venturino@elsevier.com.  

Discussions about the continuation of RareDiseaseMonitor (for the NFU members) are ongoing.   

More information about the new 2025-2027 Agreement will be added to the Elsevier  Open Access agreements page in due course.  

The epdos.nl website will continue to be accessible through the first half of 2025.
