The 2024 cap for open access articles in journals included in the institutional deal that the University Library made with Oxford University Press has been reached.
The Oxford University Press (OUP) Open Access agreement for the Netherlands has now reached its limit, meaning that authors will no longer be able to publish their articles open access under this agreement for the remainder of the year.
While OUP still offers Open Access as an option, authors will now be required to cover the Article Processing Charges (APCs) themselves if they wish to publish their articles open access.
Authors whose articles have already been accepted and are awaiting publication, but who lack the funds to cover APCs, may consider alternative options. One such option is to ask their own department or funder to cover the fees. Another, preferred one, is publishing under ‘closed access’ and then making use of our Open Access Regulation to share their article publicly in their institutional repository after a six-month embargo period.
