We are in advanced negotiations for a new Open Access agreement with Wiley. If the agreement is finalised, we intend to retroactively make all articles published in Wiley journals on or after 1 January 2025 Open Access.

What to do now:

• For hybrid journals: choose the “publish behind paywall” option when your article is accepted.
• For Gold Open Access journals: select “Author pays”, but do not pay any invoice.

Provided the new workflows go live as planned, your publication will be converted to Open Access at no cost to you. Please note that any invoices already settled will not be refunded.

If you have any questions, please contact openaccess@unibas.ch.
