SAGE and UNC–Chapel Hill Enter Into OA Pilot Program
SAGE is starting an OA pilot program with the University of North Carolina (UNC)–Chapel Hill Libraries. In 2020, UNC–Chapel Hill researchers will get access to SAGE Journals. In addition, UNC–Chapel Hill faculty members, staffers, and students will get article-processing charge (APC) funding from SAGE and the university libraries “for a number of articles accepted for publication in a SAGE subscription journal under an open access option. For articles that derive from funded research, the APC will be charged at a discounted rate,” according to the press release.“SAGE is committed to paving new paths as we pursue the goal of disseminating vital research to the broadest community in a way that maximizes output while minimizing the cost to the research community. We look forward to learning from this pilot in order to better assess how we can support the growth of open access in the U.S. for the future,” says David Ross, VP of open research at SAGE.
