CRKN has signed a new three-year, read-and-publish agreement with Oxford University Press.
Authors at CRKN member institutions will benefit from unlimited open access publishing in more than 350 Oxford hybrid journals at no cost to the author (i.e. with no article processing charge (APC)), and a 10% discount on APCs when publishing in Oxford’s gold open access journals. It is estimated that the agreement will result in the publication of over 900 open access articles by Canadian authors per year throughout its duration.
Over several months, CRKN’s Content Strategy Committee (CSC) successfully negotiated for terms in the agreement that reflect the needs of CRKN members, at the best value possible. The CSC uses CRKN’s Licensing Principles along with feedback from members to guide this process.
The term of this agreement is January 1, 2024 to December 31, 2026 and includes 69 participants. The complete agreement is available on the CRKN website.
