The corresponding author should use an email address from the domain of the institution participating in the program, which guarantees that the system will automatically send a request for verification of the article to the consortium administrator. An author who uses an email from outside the institution’s domain, after receiving the article’s approval from the editorial office, should additionally contact the coordinator – AAbramowska@ebsco.com.
