Read and Publish

Enabling Open Access for your researchers

Finding a viable way to transition the publishing model to Open Access has the potential to greatly increase the reach of published research, whilst maintaining the very highest standards of peer review and publishing practices.

CSIRO Publishing’s Read and Publish agreements enable you to support Open Access for your researchers while maintaining access to relevant content, and control costs.

Benefits for libraries and their institutions:

  • A transparent agreement combining access to current and archival journal content for selected CSIRO Publishing journals, as well as Open Access publishing services for your institution
  • Detailed, live reporting on Open Access papers published and in the pipeline under the agreement
  • Options to secure predictable costs over multiple years

Benefits for authors:

  • Access to high quality, relevant journal content
  • The option for corresponding authors to publish open access and make research available worldwide without restriction
  • Quick and easy publishing process - a simple, guided workflow
  • Compliance with funder mandates that require Open Access publication
