The pandemic response created an urgency, and this urgency immediately prompted virtuous trends in academic publishing: new tools for researchers and readers, easily accessible data, a reduction in publication times (still ensuring high quality standards) and, above all, a move toward more open-access publishing. Firenze University Press has been one of the first promoter of this unprecedent "new deal" in academic publishing, and actively contributed to its realization with a rapid, open, and transparent approach. Starting from March 28, 2020 the Journals published by Firenze University Press launched a series of special calls for papers concerning the multiple and multifaceted issues related to Covid-19 in a wide range of fields, including biology, chemistry, education, sociology, economics, history, and so forth. aAll rights reserveduhttp://oapen.org/content/about-rights aEnglish 7aMedicine2bicssc acoronavirus acoronavirus and research acovid and research acovid collection acovid journals aitalian research and coronavirus0 aDOAB Library.40uhttps://directory.doabooks.org/handle/20.500.12854/8326970zFree-to-read: DOAB: description of the publication c92786d92786
