Brill Reenforces Commitment to Open Research in 2022 via 18 New Open Access Agreements and Partnerships

April 11, 2022 Brill, the largest Open Access publisher in the Humanities, is proud to announce 18 new Open Access agreements and multi-year partnership projects in 2022. In addition to Open Access journal agreements in the Netherlands, United Kingdom, Sweden, and Austria, we are delighted to have another agreement in place in Australia and New Zealand. These Transformative Agreements offer unlimited Open Access publishing to researchers at participating universities, in addition to access to Brill’s journal collections. More information about Brill’s Transformative Agreements and participating institutions can be found here: https://brill.com/page/institutionaloa/institutional-open-access-agreements.

In addition, Brill reached 13 multi-year publishing partnerships for Open Access book series and journals. Our new partners include the Max Planck Institute, the National Institute for Japanese Language and Linguistics, the University of Bayreuth, as well as two prestigious research projects funded by the European Research Council. Crucially, these partnerships allow authors to publish their journal article or book in Open Access without any charges.

Jasmin Lange, Brill’s Chief Publishing Officer, comments: “Sustainability is one of the key goals of Brill’s Open Access program. These agreements and partnerships provide a cost-free, long-term and reliable Open Access opportunity to authors. This is pertinent in the Humanities and Social Sciences, fields where authors do not have ready access to Open Access funding. We are delighted that a growing number of consortia, institutions, societies and projects share our commitment to expand Open Access in these fields. We are proud of these new collaborations and agreements.”
