In January, some U of A authors have reported not being offered the APC-free Open Access option within Wiley’s author workflow. In other words, when an author reaches the point of choosing Open Access in Wiley’s production system, the no-cost option they’re entitled to has not been offered.
As of today (16 Jan), these issues should be resolved because Wiley has finally “implemented” our agreement across their systems. (Our agreement with Wiley is in force until 31 December 2026.)
Authors finalizing the publication of papers in eligible Wiley journals should now see the no-cost OA option in the author workflow. Thanks for supporting any authors who’ve been affected by this confusing situation. You can refer them to csu@ualberta.ca if necessary.
