Read & Publish Open Access agreements

We were one of the first not-for-profit publishers to launch a cost-neutral Read & Publish initiative. Since launch in November 2019, we have signed Read & Publish agreements with five library consortia and over 200 institutions in 16 countries are now participating.

Unlimited access to all our subscription journals and their archives is available to researchers at participating institutions, and corresponding authors benefit from uncapped, immediate and fee-free Open Access publication of research articles.

Our Read & Publish agreements also support institutions and researchers working to meet funding requirements.

Migration to Silverchair

Our five peer-reviewed journals moved to the Silverchair publishing platform on Thursday 15 April 2021. We are very excited about the enhancements to user experience, discoverability and admin functionality that the move will bring.
