Library Out Loud

We’re excited to announce that Massey researchers can now publish articles as open access, at no charge to the authors, in a wide range of journals under new “read and publish” agreements.

The latest publishers to offer this for 2022 are:

• Springer Nature, around 2000 journals. Read more about the agreement and see the full title list at Read and publish – Springer Nature.
• Wiley, offering around 1400 titles. Read more about the agreement and see the full title list at Read and publish – Wiley.
• Oxford University Press, with around 350 titles. Read more about the agreement and see the full title list at Read and publish – OUP.
• Cambridge University Press, with around 400 titles covering humanities, social sciences, science, technology and medicine. Read more about the agreement and see the full title list at Read and publish – CUP.

See the full list of read & publish agreements negotiated by CAUL. For each agreement, check the ‘participating institutions’ list to see whether Massey University is included.

Read and publish agreements are a fairly new model where the Library pays an annual fee so that:

• Massey staff and students can read the journals (as with the usual subscription model), and
• Massey researchers can have their articles made freely and openly available to anyone (open access) without having to pay Article Processing Charges.

Read more on open access publishing, including the benefits, other read and publish agreements, and making your work open access through Massey Research Online, an alternative OA model.
