Wiley's OA Updates
Throughout December 2021, Wiley was busy expanding its OA initiatives.On Dec. 2, Wiley acquired Knowledge Unlatched, an OA solutions company that “helps libraries and publishers reduce complexity through seamless online services to approve, pay, and manage their open access transactions and maximize the impact of library budgets to make more content open access.” On Dec. 6, Wiley launched Public Health Challenges, a new OA journal that “aims to publish original research, reviews, and perspectives that represent the full spectrum of global public health research, policy and practice.” On Dec. 16, Wiley signed a 3-year OA agreement with Carnegie Mellon University, which enables the university’s researchers “to publish all accepted articles open access in Wiley's journals, meaning that they are freely available to read and share upon publication.” This will expand the university’s reach in disseminating its research, especially in the areas of AI, machine learning, and automation. On Dec. 30, Wiley signed a 3-year OA agreement with MALMAD, the Israeli Inter-University Center for Digital Information Services, which allows “researchers at 24 participating institutions to publish accepted articles open access in all of Wiley’s hybrid open access journals, as well as provide access to all subscription content. The agreement aims to make all articles published by participating Israeli researchers in Wiley journals open access during the agreement period.”
