Emory University researchers can publish their work “open access” in all Cambridge University Press journals without paying a publishing cost, owing to an agreement between Emory Libraries and Cambridge University Press.
Open-access journals do not charge libraries or readers to access their articles. Instead, they pass along the cost to authors through an article-publishing fee that can range from $500 to more than $10,000. The agreement with Cambridge University Press exempts Emory researchers from paying that fee.
When Emory researchers publish their work openly, it maximizes the accessibility, discoverability, and impact of Emory research. The Libraries’ Cambridge package includes more than 380 peer-reviewed journals across the humanities, social sciences, and STEM fields. Emory joins more than 1,000 prestigious research institutions around the globe in formalizing this agreement with Cambridge, whose goal is to make all their journals fully open access by around 2025.
The agreement applies to all articles authored by Emory University researchers that are accepted for publication between January 1, 2022, and December 31, 2024.
