Fall Into Research: Open Access for UGA Authors: Read & Publish Deals, CC licenses, and OA Citation Advantage
The UGA Libraries recently entered into two new Read & Publish Agreements with Elsevier and Springer Nature that cover APC charges in hybrid journals for UGA authors. With these new agreements, the list of Open Access publishing opportunities for UGA authors expands to over 7,000 journal titles.
