SAGE hybrid journals

The open access publishing fee has been pre-paid through an agreement between the library and SAGE. The agreement applies to open access publishing in most of SAGE hybrid journals. In 2023, ten open access journals are also included in the agreement with a full discount on the publishing fee.

Terms and conditions

• You must be the corresponding author, i.e., the one handling communication with the publisher and journal.
• Your Umeå University affiliation must be stated in the published article.
• Use your university e-mail ending with @umu.se. The e-mail domain is often used to recognize your eligibility.
• Your article will be published under a CC BY license.
• Please note that the agreement does not cover any additional charges, such as page charges or charges for colour illustrations.

How the publishing process works

Upon acceptance, you will receive an email from the publisher with a link to the SAGE Open Access Portal (SOAP). Follow the instructions in the portal.
