Read and Publish Agreements, or Transformative Agreements, are aimed at making more of our research open access. These agreements work by taking the library’s existing expenditure on journal subscriptions and repurposing it to cover both reading and publishing in a particular publisher’s journals.
These Read and Publish Agreements allow Notre Dame-affiliated researchers to publish articles open access without paying an Article Processing Charge (APC).
Some key points to note:
If authors wish to publish in their chosen journal as closed access, they can deposit their author’s accepted manuscript as open access with ResearchOnline, the institutional repository, noting embargoes may apply.
Included titles
This agreement allows authors from participating institutions to publish open access an original peer-reviewed research or review article or a brief report in most of APA's hybrid journals, at no cost to the author. Articles will have the CC-BY copyright license.
This is an uncapped agreement. There is no limit to the number of articles that can be published OA.
This agreement allows authors from participating institutions to publish open access in up to 331 titles with no transactional APCs. Included titles for Notre Dame are restricted to Brill's Religious Studies collection - see list below.
Corresponding authors from Notre Dame may publish immediately to open access on the publisher's platform once the article has been accepted, with no transactional APCs. Authors will be recognised as being eligible for open access publishing by their Notre Dame email address and Notre Dame institutional affiliation.
