Open Access Publishing & Policies: Open Access Publishing Discounts

        Publisher OA Agreements and Discounts

The University of California has transformative open access publishing agreements and publishing discounts in place with a broad range of scholarly publishers, including several of the world’s largest commercial journal publishers, as well as society, not-for-profit, and fully open access publishers. These agreements and discounts are in place to make it easier and more affordable for UC authors to publish open access by reducing the amount that authors are responsible for paying when publishing open.

Please note: it is a good idea to check the link above for the details of each agreement or contact the Scholarly Communications Librarian (scholcomm at ucsd dot edu) with questions.

• corresponding author must be UC affiliated

• not all agreements cover all journals or all of the APC

• the terms and the journals under agreement are time-bound and subject to change
