Information for authors

Please note: For articles to be published open access under the terms of this agreement, responsible corresponding authors must

• select a participating institution as their affiliation in the publisher system
• use an institutional email address for a participating institution (see Participating institutions list above) when submitting their article.

Responsible corresponding authors should not use personal email addresses (e.g. Hotmail, Gmail). Doing so may result in delayed approval of the article or the article may not be approved to be published open access under the terms of the agreement. 

Responsible corresponding authors* from institutions listed under 'Participating institutions' above may publish immediately to open access on the publisher's platform once the article has been accepted with no transactional APCs. (Page and colour charges may apply.)

How to submit your article for open access publishing

1. Follow the publisher's usual article submission process via the journal’s homepage.
2. On acceptance of the article, the responsible* corresponding author selects open access, confirms the licence type (e.g. CC-BY), and indicates funder and their institutional affiliation using Wiley Author Services.
3. The APC will be waived for authors who have 
   • used an institutional email address belonging to one of the participating institutions and
   • selected a participating institution as their institutional affiliation.

For more information on the author workflow refer to this step-by-step guide on publishing open access in Wiley hybrid journals.

* Each article may have more than one corresponding author, but only a single designated 'responsible corresponding author' who will be in charge of the administrative details for the article.

Authors will be identified as eligible for open access publishing with no transactional APCs by their 

• email address and

Management of the allowance of included articles

• The allowance is allocated to the CAUL Consortium as a whole, not to individual institutions.
• CAUL National Office will approve articles for publication under the agreement. Institutions will only need to intervene in instances where further information is needed to ascertain if the article and/or author is eligible. 
• It is possible that the threshold of included articles will be reached later in 2023.
• If the threshold of included articles is reached, authors of any additional articles accepted in 2023 may choose to publish articles as "closed access" or pay an APC for the article to be published open access.
• The allowance applies to articles accepted in the subscription year and resets at the beginning of the next year. If the allowance is exceeded in 2023, open access publishing without transactional APCs will recommence in January 2024 under the agreement for 2024.
• As the year progresses, information about when the threshold of included articles is expected to be reached will be posted to this guide. Content Coordinators will also be updated on a regular basis.
