Independence with Impact
Authors can make their article open access either via the gold OA publishing or green OA archiving as described below.
A number of funders require research articles which have resulted from their funding to be made open access, including RCUK, NIH and Wellcome Trust. Sage helps authors comply with these mandates either via the gold open access publication route or green open access archiving.
Please check with your funders if there is a mandate to publish your research open access and the criteria for compliance. These resources may be helpful:
When publishing your work open access, your institution may be able to help you to cover the open access article processing charge (APC) through an Open Access agreement they have with Sage.
Your institution may also have an open access prepaid account (OAPA) with Sage in order to cover APCs or you may be eligible for a discount due to your institutional affiliation.
