SAGE Publishing is signing a new open access publishing agreement with Bibsam Consortium, serving 42 of the member institutions including universities, university colleges, and government funded research institutions. The three-year read and publish agreement applies to all articles received and accepted from January 1, 2020 and will provide Swedish researchers with: unlimited open access publishing rights in more than 900 hybrid journals including titles published on behalf of, or in association with, over 400 societies; a 20 percent discount in 150+ pure Gold Open Access journals published by SAGE; read access rights to more than 900 peer-reviewed journals (950,000+ articles), content ownership of the subscribed content published by SAGE, as well as new content added to the package annually; and publishing with a CC BY licence unless otherwise requested by the author.
As part of SAGE's ongoing efforts to support and provide solutions for the open access landscape, this agreement allows Swedish researchers to easily access more research and have their work available to read immediately on publication.
To support the open access workflows SAGE is also excited to announce the imminent launch of The SAGE Open Access Portal, a new centralized platform for authors, consortia, libraries and funders to manage open access publishing at SAGE.
