MIT Press Direct to Open Publishing Agreement (D2O)

Agreement duration:The UNSW agreement is from 1 January 2026 - 31 December 2026 for the complete collection. Previous one-year agreements were also in place between 2023 and 2025. A decision is made annually by the publisher as to whether the year's content will be published in open or subscription only access. The opening of each year's content is contingent on sufficient participation from academic libraries. In 2025, 100% funding was reached and MIT Press will publish its full list of 2025 eBook titles (80) as open access.

Summary: MIT Press publishes monographs at the intersection of science, technology, art, social science and design. This includes architecture, art, business and management, cognitive science, computer science and artificial intelligence, design, economics, education, engineering, environmental science, linguistics, mathematics, neuroscience, philosophy, physics, technology, and social theory discipline areas.

Information for authors:This Direct to Open (D2O) agreement allows UNSW Library to subscribe to MIT eBook collections that UNSW requires, including both the humanities and social sciences and STEM collections. Subscription payments go towards supporting open access publication rather than read only access. With this model, accepted manuscripts from UNSW eligible corresponding authors will be published Diamond OA. UNSW corresponding authors must use their UNSW institutional email address (name@unsw.edu.au) to be eligible under this agreement. See further information for prospective authors. For response times between submission and acceptance you should check the specific publisher guidelines for accurate information.
