The research information system TUMFIS enables TUM researchers to export publications to ORCID. Once set up, publicly visible publication records from the TUMFIS profile are automatically synchronized with the researcher’s ORCID iD on a regular basis.

The research information system TUMFIS now includes a new feature called “Equipment”. This data area allows the systematic recording of research devices and other infrastructures, such as microscopes, particle accelerators, or genomics platforms, along with details on availability and access.

Researchers at TUM can continue to benefit from numerous open access agreements with publishers in the coming year. The Publish & Read contracts with Elsevier, Springer Nature, Wiley, IEEE, the American Chemical Society (ACS), the Association for Computing Machinery (ACM), and Oxford University Press (OUP) have been extended through 2026. Funding is provided jointly by the TUM Executive Board, the University Library, as well as TUM’s research institutes and schools.

An increasing number of researchers at TUM are publishing their work in Open Access. Thanks to comprehensive agreements with publishers and the Publication Fund, the proportion of Open Access publications at TUM has increased significantly.
