Academic publisher De Gruyter and UKB, the consortium of university libraries in the Netherlands, have signed an agreement to provide default open access publishing in 305 hybrid journals to nine Dutch universities. Subscription access to the complete De Gruyter eJournal collection (347 journals) is also included.
The agreement allows all Dutch researchers at Erasmus University Rotterdam, Radboud University Nijmegen, University of Groningen, Leiden University, Utrecht University, University of Amsterdam, Tilburg University, VU Amsterdam and Wageningen University also to publish in 110 gold open access journals with a 20% discount on the APC.
The agreement will contribute to further growth in open access output by researchers in the Netherlands. The nine institutions will have access to a dashboard that allows for easy administration of their account, fast-tracked article approval and detailed reporting features.
