The 2024 calendar year limit has been reached for Open Access fee-waived publishing through Elsevier.
The Elsevier deal has a maximum number of articles per year that may be published as Open Access under this agreement. The 2024 calendar year limit has been reached. Corresponding authors will no longer see the option to publish Open Access at no charge during their article publishing process. Corresponding authors have two options: 1) they can choose to publish Open Access on their own and pay the APC, or 2) if they are submitting to a hybrid journal, they can choose to publish the article under the traditional subscription access model at no charge, they can choose to publish the article under the traditional subscription access model at no charge, then submit the Accepted [peer reviewed] manuscript version to CWRU's open access repository, Scholarly Commons. For more information on submitting to Scholarly Commons, contact scholarlycomm@case.edu.
OhioLINK has negotiated an upgraded agreement that offers open-access publishing benefits. Starting in January 2024, authors at participating OhioLINK member institutions like CWRU can publish open access (OA) in most of Elsevier’s hybrid journals at no additional cost to either the author or the institution. Some journals are excluded from open-access publishing benefits, such as Cell Press and Lancet journals.
