As a member of OhioLINK, the state’s academic library consortium, University of Cincinnati authors have access to all Elsevier, Wiley, and Springer journals in addition to open access publishing benefits that are subject to an annual limit.
The Elsevier, Wiley, and Springer deals have a maximum number of articles per year that may be published as Open Access under this agreement. It is very likely that University of Cincinnati will reach its limit in 2024 for all 3 publishers. Find more details below. When the 2024 calendar year limit is reached, corresponding authors will no longer see the option to publish Open Access at no charge during their article publishing process.
Corresponding authors have two options: 1) they can choose to publish Open Access on their own and pay the APC, or 2) if they are submitting to a hybrid journal, they can choose to publish the article under the traditional subscription access model at no charge.
