CWRU Open Access Agreements and Other Funding

Through our OhioLINK agreement, CWRU students, faculty, and staff can publish open access (OA) in select Wiley journals at no additional cost to either the author or the institution. This means that CWRU authors can publish an article as OA without paying any Article Publication Charge (APC). Any extra page or color image charges are the responsibility of the author.

To be eligible:

• Accepted between March 1, 2022 through December 31, 2026
• Accepted in select hybrid or fully OA journals* (see lists below)
  • *Hybrid journals are those that publish both subscription based and OA articles, while fully OA journals only publish OA articles.
• The responsible corresponding author must be affiliated with CWRU
  • For Fully OA Journals, affiliation is determined at submission
  • For Hybrid Journals, affiliation is determined at acceptance
• Article type must be review or research

Note: There is a statewide article limit each calendar year (Jan-Dec). Once we reach the article limit for a given year, we can no only offer OA APC coverage. This is a first-come-first-serve opportunity. In 2024, we reached our article cap limit for Wiley in October.

If your article meets the eligibility criteria and we have not reached our article limit for the year, the publisher's system will offer the no-cost OA publishing option at acceptance. Learn more about this process below.
