IEEE Signs OA Agreement With FinELib
IEEE and the FinELib consortium of Finnish organizations signed an OA read-and-publish agreement. This allows users at FinELib institutions to access IEEE journals, conferences, and standards from the IEEE Xplore digital library. In addition, affiliated authors will be able to publish their work OA. During this 3-year agreement, “the costs of accessing subscription content and the article processing charges (APCs) required to publish open access are covered by the license fees paid by consortium members, making the process easier and more convenient for authors.”IEEE CMO Karen Hawkins says, “By offering this pilot agreement, IEEE has an opportunity to test a model that we can offer more broadly if it proves to successfully and sustainably meet the needs of our readers and authors. IEEE is committed to exposing vital research to the global community and to making the publication experience for the research community in Finland and across the globe as easy as possible in the journals on which the scientific and engineering community relies.” For more information, read the press release.
