As is shown on “Saitama University Open Access Policy Guidelines<\/a>” 6-3, we try to reduce researchers’ charge on Gold OA publishing with promotion and maintenance of transformative agreements which add quotas for making researchers’ articles open access (OA) to electronic journal (EJ) subscriptions. (As for Gold OA, please see this page<\/a>).
\nWe introduce the details about each transformative agreement below.
\n\uff0aWe charge authors to some degree when they use OA publishing quotas. Please check “Introduction of author charge for using OA publishing quotas including transformative agreements (on-campus access only)<\/a>“.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n
