This agreement commenced in 2024. It is a three-year agreement (2024-2026).
Institutions participating in this agreement have read access to nearly 2000 journals in the Social Sciences and humanities (SSH) and Science & Technology (S&T packages. In addition, eligible authors affiliated to subscribing institutions can publish their articles open access in all Taylor & Francis Open Select (hybrid) journals without paying article processing charges (APCs). Eligible authors will also benefit from a 10% discount when they publish in the Taylor & Francis fully open access journals.
There is a limit (Cap) on the number of articles that can be published by authors affiliated to participating institutions. For 2024 the cap is 1276 articles, shared across the consortium and allocated on a first come first served basis. The cap is split into two groups: 37% of the article entitlement is dedicated to publishing in UNISA and NISC journals, while 63% remains available for publishing across all other Open Select (hybrid) journals.
