A transformative agreement with a publisher "seeks to shift the contracted payment from a library or group of libraries to a publisher away from subscription-based reading and toward open access publishing." Credit: The Scholarly Kitchen.
These transformative agreements can help TTUHSC researchers publish articles without paying full APCs, or Article Processing Charges.
The following are our transformative agreements:
BMJ Case Reports Fellowship (articles not necessarily open access)
Cambridge Press Read & Publish
The Company of Biologists Read & Publish
Elsevier Open Access Pilot (APC discount only)
Portland Press Read and Publish
Wiley Open Access Agreement
Please see this LibGuide for other open access publishing opportunities outside of our institution's transformative agreements.
