ACCESS COVERAGE

Are all read relevant journals covered by the agreement?

Yes
PERPETUAL ACCESS RIGHTS Yes
WORKFLOW ASSESSMENT Ok
Comments on workflows OA publishing in hybrid journals is not mandatory, but the publisher clearly states that there is an agreement in place for affiliated authors and that OA publishing is preferred. The opt-out rate (authors who choose not to publish OA) is low, 3%.
OVERALL ASSESSMENT AND COMMENTS The agreement replaces the previous agreement, which originally expired on 31 December 2022.

The total fee includes publishing rights and reading access. No cost increase compared to the previous Wiley agreement, where the total fee did not cover 100% of publishing output.

Gold OA articles approved for funding at the point of submission make it challenging to monitor the fund and estimate whether it will cover the yearly output in fully OA journals or not.
