The Ohio State University Libraries and Taylor & Francis Group have entered into a read and publish agreement to ensure that scholarship remains accessible and affordable while supporting research at Ohio State that addresses complex societal issues – the essence of a land grant research university. This partnership is Ohio State’s first read and publish agreement and Taylor & Francis’s first such deal in North America.
The Ohio State University is leading the way with this investment in open access. Beginning in July 2020, the three-year agreement gives the Ohio State community ongoing access to Taylor & Francis’s collection of more than 2,300 journals. It also covers the open access publishing costs of articles published by Ohio State authors in Taylor & Francis journals.
Taylor & Francis works with institutional partners to make it possible for them to Choose Open by creating sustainable agreements that increase choices for authors and maximise the global impact of their research.
The agreement aligns with The Ohio State University Libraries’ goal to remove the barriers that the current scholarly publishing model creates for researchers and helps ensure researchers have access to scholarship crucial for their work.
