The Publications Division of the American Chemical Society (ACS) and Tokyo University of Science (TUS) have announced a collaboration to usher in a new era of open access publishing in Japan. Over the next five years, this agreement will bring the possibility for all publications by TUS researchers in ACS journals to be made available completely open access, bringing greater visibility to the scientific contributions of the university’s researchers.
In addition to the possibility to make their articles available open access, scientists from TUS will benefit from access to ACS’ more than 75 premier journals in all areas of chemistry, as well as the newsmagazine Chemical & Engineering News.
This partnership is a deepening of ACS’ commitment to supporting the transition to open science in a way that best serves the needs of authors. Read and publish agreements like these allow academic and research institutions to lead that change, finding an innovative way of meeting both the research and publishing needs of their scientists.
Tokyo University of Science (TUS) is a well-known and respected university, and the largest science-specialized private research university in Japan. Established in 1881, the university has continually contributed to Japan's development in science through inculcating the love for science in researchers, technicians and educators.
