Information for authors:This Subscribe to Open (S2O) agreement allows UNSW Library to subscribe to journals that UNSW requires. Subscription payments go to support open access publication rather than read only access. For the six S2O journals, no Article Processing Charges (APCs) will be charged and there is no cap on the number of articles published under this agreement. However there may be additional page and colour fees charged by the Publisher. UNSW corresponding authors will be eligible for a 25% discount on page charges. If the corresponding author is an ASM member, the author will also be entitled to a 25% discount. This agreement includes all current UNSW researchers including HDR candidates and must use their UNSW institutional email address (name@unsw.edu.au) to be eligible and to help verify affiliation. Articles may be published open access under a CC BY or CC BY-NC licence type. This is the workflow for ASM article submission.
For journal response times between submission and acceptance you should check the specific journal guidelines for accurate information.
Sharing via repositories: UNSW corresponding authors can comply with the Open Access policy by retaining the rights to the Author Accepted Manuscript and depositing a copy into UNSWorks (via ROS) using a CC BY licence.
How to submit your article for open access publishing:
- The UNSW corresponding author should follow the usual article submission process via the publisher website
- On acceptance of the article, the publisher will ask the corresponding author to complete a form (publishing agreement).
- On acceptance of the manuscript, the payment system will allow UNSW corresponding authors to choose UNSW as their institution and remove the open access fee. Articles from authors at participating institutions will be published under a CC BY licence.
- To comply with the Open Access policy the UNSW corresponding author will need to retain the rights to either the Published Version of Record or Author Accepted Manuscript, and deposit into UNSWorks using a CC BY licence.
Corresponding authors should not use personal email addresses(e.g. Hotmail, Gmail)or email addresses affiliated with other organisations, research centres or institutes.Otherwise they may be ineligible under the terms of this agreement.
