Turning closed access publications to Open Access retrospectively

[edit]

Turning older publications legally into open access is not a mission impossible any more. This possibility is becoming part of the service portfolio of more and more publishers (e.g. Routledge). Even if it is not explicitly offered on the publisher’s due to low demand or to the relative novelty of this practice, it is worth highlighting this possibility as a source of revenue for your publisher.

If funding for this purpose is available, the authors of the publication and the publisher agree on the details of re-licensing or double-licensing and create a new contract.
