Springer Nature announces OA agreement with Electronic Information Service National Programme Springer Nature and the Hungarian Academic Consortium (EISZ) have announced an agreement that combines reading access and open access (OA) publishing in one single framework. Effective from January 2019, researchers from the participating consortium institutions will gain access to over 2,000 Springer journals and will have the right to publish their research via the OA model in more than 1,850 Springer hybrid journals without any direct costs, allowing wider reach of current findings and a greater benefit for both science and society.

Through collaboration with Jonathan Rees from the Cambridge Entomological Club, all content ever published by Psyche is now freely available and accessible to both entomologists and the public on the journal's website. The availability of the back content of the journal ensures that Psyche can be fully acknowledged for both the historical and scientific role it has played, and also ensures that Psyche is fully aligned with Hindawi's mission of opening access to research.
