Open Access Publishing with Wiley
Philipps-Universität Marburg participates in the DEAL agreement with Wiley, including around 1,300 hybrid journals (Wiley “Hybrid Open Access Option”) and 600 fully Open Access journals.
Publishing in a hybrid journal (otherwise closed access)
A hybrid journal publishes single articles in open access usually after paying an optional fee. The DEAL contract enables to publish manuscripts open access without paying such a fee. Under the terms of the agreement, submitting corresponding authors of Philipps-Universität Marburg can publish their articles in Wiley’s hybrid journals with immediate open access at no additional cost to the author.
Publishing in fully gold open access journals
In a gold open access journal all articles are published freely available without an embargo, but an article processing charge (APC) has to be paid. Under the terms of the DEAL agreement, corresponding authors of Philipps-Universität Marburg will receive a 20% discount on the list prices for their researchers' publications in fully open access journals.
The APC may be funded partially or fully by the Open Access Publishing Fund up to 2,000 EUR incl. taxes. Available third-party funding for publishing has to be used with priority. If the article is eligible for funding and the APC exceeds 2,000 EUR the applicant has to cover the rest and has to provide a cost center.
To facilitate the discount under the DEAL-agreement, there is a collective invoice administed at the university library. The accounting entry with the cost splitting between fund and cost center of the author will be processed on a quarterly basis.
Article types covered
Article types included in the agreement include: Primary Research articles, Review articles, Case Study, Commentary, Data Article, Education, Lecture, Method and Protocol, Perspective, Practice and Policy, Rapid Publication, Short Communication, and Technical Note.
