The Royal Society of Chemistry and Jisc have collaborated on a transformative national deal that will provide UK institutions with access to read, and publish open access in the Royal Society of Chemistry’s peer-reviewed portfolio of hybrid journals in the chemical sciences and related fields.
The new, national agreement offers a financially viable, funder-compliant way to rapidly increase open access publishing in the UK.
From January 2020 until December 2021, corresponding authors at qualifying institutions can have an article made publicly available in the Royal Society of Chemistry’s hybrid portfolio at no direct cost to them. At the same time, all UK institutions are upgraded to the full RSC journal portfolio.
Researchers at participating institutions can look forward to faster submission times, a reduced financial and administrative burden when publishing, and a substantial boost to their own profile as a scientist.
