Open access books and chapters

Taylor & Francis is a Gold Sponsor of the directory of open access books (DOAB).

DOAB is a community-driven discovery service that indexes and provides access to scholarly, peer-reviewed open access books and helps users to find trusted open access book publishers.

Enable researchers to make single- or co-authored books, edited collections and conference proceedings gold open access upon publication.

Give researchers the flexibility to open one or multiple chapters within a title to gold open access.

Pledge to Open is a collective funding initiative that makes scholarly books free to read and free to publish. It enables libraries to use their budgets more effectively, creating a greater global impact by working together rather than independently.

By contributing to Open Access book publishing, pledging institutions help to ensure the widest possible dissemination of important research, benefiting authors and readers, especially in lower-income countries.

The pledging period runs from September 2024 through the end of September 2025, and is centered around seven collections:

• Artificial Intelligence
• Biotechnological Solutions
• Sustainability in Practice
• Migration and Asylum
• Children’s Health and Welfare
• Global Security
• Social Movements and Activism

Convert full books or individual chapters to gold open access after publication. This route benefits from tiered pricing which is linked to the date of publication.

Open multiple titles or chapters from your institution’s researchers to increase the visibility and impact of work.
