The UJ Library promotes and supports Open Access Publishing by covering the cost (paying for) of Open Access Costs/Fees (APCs) on behalf of the Researcher, subject to meeting Library and Faculty criteria.
In addition to paying for APCs, the library through the South African National Library and Information Consortium (SANLIC), has Transformative Agreements with Publishers.
These Transformative Agreements mean that the full cost of the APC is covered by the library for you and waived or discounted.
