New York, NY (USA) - IGI Global Scientific Publishing—dedicated to
“Publishing Tomorrow’s Research Today” since 1988, has established a partnership with James Madison University Libraries through an Open Access Agreement.
Through this agreement, James Madison University-affiliated authors receive a 5% discount on Article Processing Charges (APCs) when they publish in IGI Global Scientific Publishing’s Open Access Journal Program, which includes nearly 200 journals across Business & Management, Science, Technology, & Medicine (STM), and Education & Social Sciences. By publishing Open Access (under CC BY licensing), faculty benefit from increased visibility, discoverability, and citation impact across hundreds of journals indexed in Scopus and Web of Science.
“We are pleased to start this partnership with James Madison University Libraries," said Nick Newcomer, Senior Vice President of Sales & Marketing at IGI Global Scientific Publishing. “This Open Access Agreement reinforces our shared commitment to removing barriers to open access and increasing the visibility and impact of scholarly research.”
More information can be found on James Madison University Libraries' LibGuides.
IGI Global Scientific Publishing further supports library open access initiatives through a Flat-Fee (Unlimited) Open Access Publishing Agreement that enables libraries to provide uncapped open access publishing for their researchers under a single, predictable fee. Libraries may also opt for flexible Read & Publish models that combine unlimited open access publishing with access to IGI Global Scientific Publishing’s expansive e-Book Collection—offered via subscription, evidence-based acquisition (EBA), or perpetual license—delivering more than 10,000 scholarly e-Books and over 200,000 peer-reviewed chapters to support institutional teaching and research.
