The new UKRI open access policy for monographs, books chapters and edited collections comes into effect on 1 January 2024. Any monograph, book chapter or edited collection under contract from 01 January 2024 will need to be open access within one year of publication. Your publication can be openly available through an institutional or subject repository, through a subscribe to open or other alternative funding model, or an open access option from your publisher which may or may not be charged for.
If you are publishing a monograph, book chapter or edited collection that acknowledges UKRI funding and would like more information about the policy or would like to request support for the funding application process please contact the open access team info@openaccess.cam.ac.uk.
You can find further details on the UKRI Open Access Policy and information about the different models for supporting open access for long-form scholarship on our website.
In January the Open Access team will be hosting a Q and A event for UKRI-funded researchers, further details will be circulated shortly.
