This is included in the agreement
The open access publishing fee (APC, article processing charge) has been pre-paid through an agreement between the Library and the publisher. The agreement applies when the corresponding author (i.e., the person communicating with the publisher and journal) is affiliated with Umeå University.
The agreement does not cover additional charges, such as page fees or colour illustration fees.
The agreement applies to articles accepted by the publisher in 2025 or 2026 (“acceptance date” in 2025–2026).
Journals and article types
The agreement applies to open access publishing in most Taylor & Francis hybrid journals (Open Select Journals) and in their open access journals. Exceptions are journals from the publishers Dove Medical Press and PeerJ and journals on the Faculty of 1000 platform, where open access publishing is not included in the agreement.
The agreement applies to research and review articles. The article types are usually called “Article”, “Research Article”, “Review” or “Review Article”, but depending on the journal and subject area, other names may occur.
Choice of licence
Articles covered by the agreement are published with a CC BY licence by default, but you can also choose between various other Creative Commons licences.
What you need to do
To use the agreement, you must:
- be the corresponding author;
- state a correct affiliation to Umeå University in the manuscript; and
- state Umeå University as your primary affiliation in the publisher submission system.
For the publisher to identify you as affiliated to Umeå University, you should use your university email address ending in @umu.se.
