Pre-Paid APCs!: UQ Library can help fund publishing activities and advise on publishing strategy - Online event

Read and Publish agreements progress the transition to open access publishing. UQ authors can publish their research in included open access journal titles utilising Library pre-paid article processing charges (APCs). The Library funds open publishing via a combined access and publishing cost.

This webinar will discuss the UQ Read and Publish agreements for 2024, and demonstrate a collection of tools that UQ Library have developed to assist in strategic decision making about publishing and considering open access pathways as part of the process. The workshop will:

• Explain Read and Publish agreements
• How to select journals based on:
  • Impact Factor
  • Subject area
  • Coverage of an APC by a Read and Publish agreement
  • Quartile
• How to comply with funder requirements via alternative publishing pathways.

This webinar will offer advice and guidance on how to navigate Read and Publish agreements and journal selection.
