Access to Penn State scholarly research expands through two new agreements
As part of the Big Ten Academic Alliance (BTAA), Penn State University Libraries have recently entered into two agreements that will help to expand access to scholarly content, enhance open access (OA) publishing and increase visibility of Penn State research. The Cambridge University Press (CUP) OA read and publish journal agreement covers OA publishing charges for Penn State corresponding authors publishing in CUP journals with an OA option, which encompasses 92 percent of the journals in the CUP portfolio. The second agreement, the Public Library of Science (PLOS) Community Action Publishing (CAP) pilot agreement, will allow BTAA corresponding authors to publish in PLOS Biology and PLOS Medicine without incurring fees. BTAA and PLOS will also collaborate on data, metrics and tools for institutions to evaluate OA publishing agreements.
