Q. What is Green open access?

Green open access refers to the practice of making a version of a scholarly work, typically the author's accepted manuscript, freely accessible in a repository or another online platform. A journal with a Green open access policy allows authors to share their accepted manuscripts after an embargo period or immediately upon acceptance for publication. Green open access is often associated with institutional repositories or subject-based repositories.

This model enhances the dissemination of research while still maintaining a connection with traditional publishing channels.
