[Library Network : for KU members] Introduction of the Transformative Agreement with Wiley and APC Discount
Kyoto University will introduce the transformative agreement with Wiley that encompasses the Article Processing Charge (APC) and the e‐journals subscription fee from January 2023.
Under this agreement, APC discounts are applied to articles submitted to Wiley journals by authors affiliated with Kyoto University.
Please see the following website for information on eligible journals and OA publishing workflow. Please note that the transformative agreement does not imply that the Library recommends submissions to any particular publisher.

Wiley Press Release: Wiley expands open access agreement in Japan - John Wiley & Sons, Inc
[2023-09-06 Add]
If the publisher of the journal to which you are submitting changes from Wiley to another company (transfer), articles that have not yet been published (published in Early View) at the time of transfer are not eligible for the transformative agreements with Wiley (i.e., are not eligible for discounted APCs). Please note that in such cases, authors are required to pay the full amount of the APC to the transferring publisher (if you publish as a non-OA in a hybrid journal, you do not need to pay the APC). Please refer to the following file for details.

[Library Network] Shortened URL of the bibliography after KULINE renewal
With the renewal of KULINE on August 21, the page structure within KULINE has been changed.
As a result, some URLs have broken links.

Current KULINE can still be accessed from the URL of the former KULINE home page (https://kuline.kulib.kyoto-u.ac.jp).
