NOTE: the agreement lasts until December 31, 2023. The new one is still under negotiation.

 

The University of Bologna has joined the national CARE-CRUI agreement with Wiley. The transformative agreement covers both the subscription fees for accessing the Database collection subscribed by the University of Bologna and the fees for publishing in Open Access in the hybrid journals included in the same collection, as well as in the hybrid journals that will become full Open Access during the term of the contract.

 

Depositing in the Institutional Repository (Green Open Access)

For any article published in hybrid journals whose costs are not covered by the agreement, authors can deposit the Author’s Accepted Manuscript (AAM) (post-print) version of their article in the institutional repository or publish it on their personal websites. The publication will be freely accessible after a 12-month embargo period for STM (Scientific, Technical and Medical) journals and after a 24-month embargo period for SSH (Social Science and Humanities) journals.

 

How long does the agreement last?

The agreement lasts from January 1, 2020 to December 31, 2023.
