Jisc Agreement

A number of individual institutions are working with Taylor-Francis to provide funding to authors who wish to publish Open Access. Find out if your institution has an agreement with us on the Open Access members` page on Taylor – Francis Online. SAGE has reached an agreement with Jisc to subscribe to jisc Institute members to cover the cost of processing open access articles (APCs) for affiliated authors. The British Jisc Agreement, open to all British institutions and owned by Demkonsort, runs between 2020 and 2022 and runs until 1 January 2020. Here is a list of participating institutions. If you have any questions about this agreement, please contact the MDPI IOAP team at the [email protected] address. The agreement respected what it had set for itself; rapidly increase the volume of OA from the UK, reduce spending and finance this transition with credits previously spent on subscriptions. As of 31 August, 5,164 articles have been published or accepted in open access, an increase of 82% over articles published in 2019, and an increase of 91% compared to 2018. This agreement provides participating British institutions with a reduced CAP allocation for most Taylor and Francis Open Select (hybrid) magazines. Please note that medical credentials are not currently included in this scheme. This will expand publishing options, subscribe to EIT newspapers and make it a broader publication, but it will have an impact on the amount of publications that can be provided from existing funds. For IET titles and other newspapers migrating to these agreements, we would like to explore how to reinvest existing subscription expenses to support oA publications in full open-access newspapers.

By the end of 2020, the authors of this programme will be able to publish the Open Access of the European Central University without having to pay a publication fee for articles (APC). This reading and publication agreement applies to Taylor-Francis and Routledge Open Select (hybrid) titles that have a standard APC. This innovative agreement will allow institutions to control the costs of accessing and publishing OA. It will also support a simplified procedure for authors and their institutions, which will allow compliance with funding mandates and Plan S. In 2021, the magazines of the Institution of Engineering and Technology (IET) will be included in Wiley`s reading and publication agreement on a fully open access basis. SAGE has reached an agreement with WHEEL (Wales Higher Education Electronic Library) from 2019 to 2021. If you plan to publish work in a Wiley magazine and make your work open at Gold when you are not receiving COAF/UKRI/Wellcome funding, the funds will no longer be available through the Jisc Agreement from 12 October to 31 December 2020. During this period, a 25% discount is granted to authors who publish Gold Open Access: the new national agreement offers a financially viable opportunity, in line with donors, to rapidly increase open access publishing in the UK.

Talk to your librarian to find out if your institution is part of the agreement. In January 2021, the OA fund will be reset and the reduced fee will remain applicable to all OA publications. Although the OA fund will increase by 2% in 2021, we want the Fund to continue and cover all research and audit items. The reason for this is threefold: we want to minimize the administration of universities, simplify authorship and maximize the value that researchers and universities derive from the agreement. Find out here our open access agreements, find out if you are justified and how to access the funds. One of the challenges of the agreement is that it does not automatically cover 100% of UK production. Together with the institutions and Wiley, we have taken security measures to ensure that institutions can control spending while respecting the UK`s research proponents` policy. The UK`s largest transition agreement to date accelerates the publication of open access and expands access to one of the largest collections of scientific content.
