Open Access Partnership Program (OAPP)
At PreferPub, we believe that research should be freely accessible to everyone, without barriers or restrictions. All the content in our journals is openly available to readers worldwide, without requiring registration, subscriptions, or payments of any kind.
While some journals charge authors for submission and Article Processing Charges (APCs) to cover the costs of publishing OA, most of PreferPub’s journals do not impose these fees.
Our Open Access Partnership Program (OAPP) supports academic institutions in promoting equitable access to knowledge while simplifying administrative processes. Through OAPP, institutions can benefit from streamlined workflows and tailored invoicing solutions, with additional support for authors where applicable.
PreferPub’s OAPP is perfect for institutions committed to advancing open-access publishing and supporting their researchers. For more information, please contact us at info@preferpub.com.
