OVERALL ASSESSMENT AND COMMENTS
We do think this is sustainable with regards to costs and operations. Our researchers are glad to have full read access to the Wiley journals… they are popular and well used here. We think it is an added bonus to have the opportunity for our researchers to have the option to publish OA in Wiley journals – feedback is overwhelmingly positive.
