EMS Press, the publishing house of the not-for-profit organisation European Mathematical Society, has signed a three-year agreement with Jisc that offers all Jisc members subscriptions to a flexible package of five journals making it easier for mathematicians to publish open access. The agreement is to give institutions access to journal packages at special rates while supporting open access through the Subscribe to Open model.
UK institutions can subscribe at a discounted fixed fee without price increases until 2023. EMS Press does not charge any fees to publish and offers a green compliance option for all Plan S funded articles. Every subscribing institution contributes to sustainable open access with the 'Subscribe to Open' model for ten EMS journals.
The contracts under the agreement are available for purchase now and commence on January 1, 2021.
Mathematicians at UK institutions are among the key contributors to mathematical research. Jisc is working with society publishers such as EMS to reduce costs for UK libraries and at the same time contribute to a sustainable transition to open access with the 'Subscribe to Open' model.
