We specialize in promoting open access, amplifying the voice and visibility of your society’s work through innovative marketing and publishing platforms.

Changes in the research access landscape are impacting scholarly journals. We help our partners understand and realize the opportunities for their journals.

We offer a range of Open Access resources to support society leaders including slide decks, videos and guides.

Open Access agreements

We partner with libraries and institutions around the world to offer open access agreements that reduce or cover article publishing charges (APCs) for authors. This means that authors at participating organizations can often publish open access with no personal cost.

These agreements simplify the publishing process for authors and reduce costs for librarians. When eligible researchers submit their work including their institutional affiliation details, our systems recognize their eligibility for open access funding. 

We have a growing global network of partnerships, including agreements in Europe, United Kingdom, the Middle East, the United States, Australia, Japan and South Africa.

My reason for publishing OA was because my institution has an agreement with the publisher. This is excellent and definitely encourages academics to target relevant journals where open access is covered under that agreement

Open Access books

Taylor & Francis is a leading global publisher of open access books and chapters. Our open access books program began over a decade ago, and we have published over 2,000 fully open access titles, in collaboration with academic and professional institutions and societies around the world.

We recommend working with PeerJ to launch your organization’s Hub. The PeerJ staff are professional, transparent, and prompt in answering questions and offering solutions to problems.

PeerJ

PeerJ is a Gold Open Access publisher offering nine OA journals across a wide scope of life sciences, computer science and chemistry.

Societies can partner with any of these journals to create a PeerJ Hub – an innovative overlay journal solution for scholarly societies or research organisations that would like to create a publishing option for their members without launching an entirely new journal from scratch.

F1000

F1000 is an open research publisher and services provider that enables researchers, funders, research institutions, learned societies, and associations to accelerate the reach of knowledge.

Societies can partner with F1000 to launch an open research publishing venue (a “Platform”), create their own branded space within one of our existing venues (a “Gateway”), or put together a set of articles on a key topic (a “Collection”).

By passing all of the publishing services onto F1000, we can focus much more on our scholarly activities. This opens up our capacity to support authors and reviewers better.
