Maximum number of OUP open access articles hybrid journals 2024 reached

On Tuesday 12 November, the maximum number of articles that can be published open access at Oxford University Press (OUP) in 2024 was reached. Until that date, a total of 653 scientific articles have been published by Dutch universities and UMCs this year. What does that mean?

Is your manuscript accepted for publication between the time the limit is reached and 1 January 2025? OUP still offers the opportunity to publish open access, but the costs are no longer covered by the agreement of the Dutch universities and UMCs during that period. The maximum number of OUP open access articles for full open access journals is not reached yet. 

If you choose open access for payment, you will therefore receive the invoice yourself. It will be between 2,500 and 3,000 euros, the so-called Article Processing Charge (APC).

You can also choose to share the article open access free of charge after an embargo period of 6 months. The article will then initially be published by OUP behind the pay wall and after 6 months in agreement with the library in the Radboud Repository shared open access.
