OA checklist: funding and policy advice for books

Many research funders and institutions worldwide have introduced policies requiring authors to make their research openly accessible, whether through immediate open access publication, or through archiving a version of their manuscript in a repository. An increasing number of these policies apply to monographs and chapters in edited collections. Follow our open access checklist to help you meet the requirements of your funders and institutions, and identify potential sources of book processing charge (BPC) or chapter processing charge (CPC) funding if you are publishing OA.

Self-archiving

Confirm what needs to be done to meet any self-archiving requirements of your funder and/or institution – which version of the book/chapter needs to be archived and where? Will the publisher be depositing the work on your behalf? Learn more about meeting self-archiving and manuscript deposition requirements and about Springer and Palgrave Macmillan’s self-archiving policies.

Self-archiving requirements and policies

Research funders and institutions may have additional open access requirements that are not covered by this checklist. We advise all authors to check open access policies on their funder and institutional websites for full details of applicable requirements.
