Wiley Open Access Article Quota

The article quota for Open Access publishing will now be exhausted by 4 November 2024.

Thanks to a Read & Publish agreement between swissuniversities and Wiley, members of the University of Basel can publish free of charge Open Access in all Wiley hybrid open access journals. However, the limited number of articles in the agreement with Wiley has already been used up due to high demand.

The publisher has now activated the standard workflow and will charge an Article Processing Charge (APC) when your journal article is published as Open Access. It is recommended not to choose the open access option (subscription based, no Open Access, is free). Alternatively, the accepted manuscript can be made available via the research portal of the University of Basel UNIverse: https://universe-intern.unibas.ch/.

Negotiations for a new agreement from 2025 are taking place at swissuniversities, please see https://www.swissuniversities.ch/themen/open-science/verlagsverhandlungen/wiley for more information.
