TÜBITAK-WILEY AGREEMENT
Dear EKUAL Members,
Further to previous communication regarding the TÜBİTAK ULAKBİM-Wiley Read & PublishAgreement, TÜBİTAK ULAKBİM and Wiley would like to provide authors and librarians withadditional information and tools for assistance.

Key Elements of the Tübitak Ulakbim and Wiley Open Access
Article Publication (Read & Publish) Agreement• First nationwide "Read and Publish" agreement: authors are permitted to read andpublish in Wiley’s complete portfolio of nearly 2,000 hybrid and fully gold open access(OA) journals under the TÜBİTAK ULAKBİM-Wiley Free Open Access Article Publication(Read & Publish) Agreement.
• According to this agreement, 1500 articles in 2023, 1530 articles in 2024 and 1561
articles in 2025 will be published OA at no cost to the author, if the author wishes.
• Although this agreement covers all Wiley journals, TÜBİTAK ULAKBİMULAKBİM have set
additional eligibility criteria to better manage the contractual publishing quota andbudget. These criteria are as follows:
ooThe Responsible Corresponding Author must be affiliated with one of theinstitutions within the scope of EKUAL.
Preference is given to articles submitted to Wiley hybrid and fully gold openaccess journals in Q1 and Q2 indexed in WoS. You can visit the Wiley-related
section on the TÜBİTAK ULAKBİM Cahit Arf Information Centre web page to
examine the journals that meet these criteria, and you can direct the authors
here.

• In the event that the annual quota for publishing an OA article is exhausted, or it isdenied funding via the TÜBİTAK ULAKBİM agreement, the author can still have thearticle published as OA when the request for open access publication is submitted. In
this case, the author or the funding organisation must pay the APC fee. if the authordoes not meet this funding for any reason, i.e. if the author is not accepted by TÜBİTAKfor APC payment, the article can be still published free of charge in a hybrid journal
under a subscription model. See ‘Other Routes to Open Access and Publishing withWiley’ below.

1• The agreement covers primary research and review articles, including but not limited toarticles classified by Wiley as Case Study, Commentary, Data Article, Education, Lecture,
Method and Protocol, Perspective, Practice and Policy, Rapid Publication, ResearchArticle, Review Article, Short Communication, and Technical Note (an illustrative list is
set forth in the attached FAQ, which Wiley is permitted to update from time to time).
More details of Wiley’s classification system and how these relate to Article Types can befound at https://bit.ly/ArticleTypes.

• No "OA article quota allocation" will be made at institutional level. Article funding
requests for OA publication will be reviewed for approval by TÜBİTAK ULAKBİM on a“first come, first served rule”.
• Authors can benefit from this right more than once if they have more than one article.
• Regarding the publications for which OA support will be provided; publications in hybrid
journals should be accepted on or after 01 January 2023, and publications in fully open
access journals should be submitted and accepted on or after 01 January 2023.
• In the case of authors wishing to have their articles published OA, it is important that
the OA approval process runs smoothly. Authors should record their institutional e-mails
in their application forms when submitting an article to Wiley.
