Taylor & Francis and Oxford University Press OA deals: annual quotas expected to be reached in November
The Universities of The Netherlands (UNL) has agreements with major publishers Taylor & Francis and Oxford University Press, allowing Dutch corresponding authors to publish articles open access without additional article processing charges (APC). However, these agreements have annual quotas that are expected to be reached in November.
Taylor & Francis
Under the Taylor & Francis agreement, Dutch corresponding authors can publish up to 1,451 open access articles per year without APC charges.
The quota for 2024 is expected to be reached in the third week of November. This means that from that moment the deal will be suspended and UG/UMCG articles will no longer be eligible for the usual 100% discount on the open access fee.
Dutch corresponding authors will be able to use the new allocation of OA fee waivers as of 1 January 2025.
Oxford University Press
Under the Oxford University Press agreement, Dutch corresponding authors are allowed to publish a maximum number of open access publications per year without APC charges: 733 articles in 2024, 707 in 2025 and 680 in 2026.
The quota for 2024 is expected to be reached in the third week of November. This means that from that moment the deal will be suspended and UG/UMCG articles will no longer be eligible for the usual 100% discount on the open access fee.
Dutch corresponding authors will be able to use the new allocation of OA fee waivers as of 1 January 2025.
Alternative routes
During the suspension of the deals, authors can choose to publish closed access. Alternative routes to make your article open access may be the Taverne Amendment route or the Rights Retention Strategy, please contact us for additional information.
Please note: If you choose to publish open access, you will have to arrange the APC payment yourself.
Should your research funder (e.g. NWO or Horizon Europe) require you to share your publications immediately (no embargo) and under an open license, please get in touch with us for advice.
