What is Included in an Open Access Membership?

Prepayment Account

Prepay money into a fund that allows eligible researchers to publish their book or chapter gold open access in the Taylor & Francis Open Access Books program. BPCs covered by the fund will receive a discount, with the level of discount determined by the amount of money you deposit into your account.

The funds in your prepayment account do not expire and can be withdrawn at any time.

Member Web Page

Promote your membership to researchers using your personalized page on Routledge.com.
The page acts as a portal for all open access research from your institution – providing increased visibility for the books and chapters published using membership funds.

We can also include eligibility criteria and other information authors need to publish their book or chapter open access at your institution to help increase awareness of the program.

 

How do you Set Up an Open Access Books Membership?

1. Get in touch with our open access team to discuss your needs.
2. Decide the amount of funds you would like to add to your prepayment account.
3. Once your prepayment account is finalized, the institution will be asked to allocate a central contact who will always be asked to authorise a BPC (to check author affiliation etc) before we make a deduction from the account.
