Wiley Open Access Agreement

Wiley and NUS’ Open Access Agreement (2023-2024) allows NUS corresponding authors to publish open access in Wiley hybrid journals, Wiley open access journals or Hindawi journals, without paying any Article Publication Charges (APC) [subject to availability of article allocations each calendar year]. Once the maximum article allowance has been reached, APCs will be eligible for a 10% discount instead.

2024-09: The agreement has reached its maximum article allowance for 2024

Eligible Authors

  • The responsible corresponding author* must be affiliated with NUS (i.e. full-time staff)
  • The research of the article must be done under NUS
  • Each NUS author is only eligible for 1 article allocation per calendar year

*An article may have multiple corresponding authors, but only a single responsible corresponding author will be in charge of the administrative details for the article.

For articles to be published open access under the terms of this agreement, responsible corresponding author must

  • select NUS as your affiliation in the publisher system
  • use your NUS email (emails ending with @nus.edu.sg; @duke-nus.edu.sg; @comp.nus.edu.sg; @yale-nus.edu.sg) when submitting your article.

Responsible corresponding author should not use personal email addresses (e.g. gmail.com, outlook.com, yahoo.com). Doing so may result in delayed approval of the article or the article may not be approved to be published open access under the terms of the agreement.

Eligible Journals

This agreement allows NUS authors to publish open access in over 1,300 Wiley hybrid journals and more than 500 Wiley and Hindawi fully open access journals without incurring APCs. View the full list of journal titles included under this agreement:
