BerlinUP and its supporting institutions are networked regionally, nationally, and internationally and support the open-access transformation through collaboration and membership in numerous projects, committees, and initiatives. Further cooperations, which serve the overarching goal of science-owned and science-adequate publication structures, accompany the gradual development and operation of BerlinUP.

The collaboration between the national Open Access Network and the developer communities of OJS-de.net and DSpace is crucial for the sustainable and quality-assured further development of BerlinUP.
