CCC Updates RightsLink for Scientific Communications
Copyright Clearance Center (CCC) added new functionality to RightsLink for Scientific Communications. It “now can inform authors of available Open Access (OA) publication funding throughout the manuscript lifecycle, starting with submission.” With the product’s “agreement management capabilities, authors can see a list of possible funding sources for paying [article-processing] fees based on publisher agreements with institutions, consortia or funders.”Emily Sheahan, CCC’s VP and managing director, says, “Researchers and authors have long struggled with the administrative burden required to identify, secure and manage eligible OA publication funding from various sources. … With this new capability, CCC and its submission platform partners make it possible to connect author affiliation to funding eligibility early in the manuscript lifecycle, providing an important missing link between the various workflow stakeholders.” For more information, read the press release.
