New Read & Publish Agreement Signed!

We’re excited to announce that the Library has signed a Read & Publish agreement with Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory Press Journals (CSHLP). The agreement provides five opportunities for UMass Chan corresponding authors to publish their manuscripts open access in the following CSHLP titles, without any article process charges (APCs):

• Genes & Development
• Genome Research
• RNA
• Learning & Memory

Once we reach the 5 publications limit (annually), corresponding authors will be able to take advantage of a discounted rate on APCs.

This transformative agreement, along with others that the Library has negotiated, make it possible for UMass Chan authors to take advantage of the many benefits of open access, including reaching a wider audience and increasing the impact of their research.

If you have any questions or want to know more about open access at UMass Chan, please contact the librarians in Research & Scholarly Communication Services.
