Read and Publish agreement with Wiley for transparent, global publications

As a scientist at ETH Zurich, you can publish open-access articles in Wiley journals without incurring any costs starting on 1 May 2021. The associated costs are covered by the new Read and Publish agreement. The agreement requires that you as the corresponding author of the submitted article are employed at ETH Zurich, and that the article was accepted for publication by the publisher after 30 April 2021. On submitting your article select affiliation with ETH Zurich. You can find detailed information on the workflow on our APC funding website.

Publish research results free of charge

This agreement generally applies to all Wiley journals. A separate agreement allows you as an author affiliated with ETH Zurich to publish free of charge through the ETH Library in Wiley¡¯s gold open-access journals.

Disseminate knowledge globally

The result of some two years of negotiations by swissuniversities, the agreement with Wiley marks the conclusion of a contract with the last of the three major publishers, and joins existing agreements with Elsevier and Springer Nature. In addition to the contracts with Cambridge University Press, Elsevier, Karger, Royal Society of Chemistry, Sage, Springer Nature and TransTech Publications, you now also benefit from the eighth Read and Publish agreement for ETH Zurich. In a combined contract model, it brings together electronic access to all Wiley journals with the option of open-access publishing. For ETH Zurich, this is an important step towards successful implementation of its open-access policy and the external page national open-access strategy in order to offer all researchers the best prospects for disseminating their scientific findings as globally and transparently as possible.
