Information for authors: This Subscribe to Open (S2O) agreement allows UNSW Library to subscribe to journals that UNSW requires. Subscription payments go to support open access publication rather than read only access. With this model, accepted articles from UNSW eligible corresponding authors will be published Diamond OA. This means there are no author fees (except for page charges for Astronomy & Astrophysics journal) and the article will be immediately available, published under a CC BY licence. UNSW corresponding authors must use their UNSW institutional email address (name@unsw.edu.au) to be eligible under this agreement. For journal response times between submission and acceptance you should check the specific journal guidelines for accurate information.
Eligible article types: Original research papers, generally presenting new results.
Sharing via repositories: Please note UNSW corresponding authors can comply with the Open Access policy by retaining the rights to the Author Accepted Manuscript and depositing a copy into UNSWorks (via ROS) using a CC BY licence.
Corresponding authors should not use personal email addresses (e.g. Hotmail, Gmail) or email addresses affiliated with other organisations, research centres or institutes. Otherwise they may be ineligible under the terms of this agreement.
