What is iOpenAccess?
-
Since October 2006, all authors whose manuscripts are accepted for publication in one of the iOpenAccess journals have had the option to make their articles freely available to all via the journal's website for a one-off fee of $3250.
-
This initiative is a "hybrid" open access scheme in selected subjects, and comes after the experience of a number of years' experimentation with access schemes operated by various T&F journals, as well as wide consultation with our editors, society partners and research funders. We intend to increase the number of iOpenAccess journals, and fees may vary as we expand this initiative into other subject areas.
Should you consider iOpenAccess?
-
Your article can be freely posted to any institutional or subject repository of your choice. Authors selecting the iOpenAccess option will have no embargo restriction on posting their version of the published article to any institutional or subject repository. Where appropriate, we will also facilitate the deposit on behalf of authors into PubMedCentral.
-
Your article will be freely accessible to all. Authors will be asked to grant a publishing license or assign copyright in the normal way. Selection of the iOpenAccess option and payment of the appropriate fee will then allow the article to be made available to all under the Supplemental Terms and Conditions for iOpenAccess articles published in Taylor & Francis journals. Under this license we will allow tagging and cross-referencing of articles within repositories so that they relate back to the original research grants and programs.
-
The peer review integrity of your article will not be compromised. Our commitment to stringent, independent, expert peer review remains--only accepted articles are eligible for the scheme, and authors will only be offered the open access option when they are sent their proofs for review. This complete separation of payment from the peer review and acceptance process will ensure that editorial independence and quality are not compromised.
