Open vs. Closed - Part 3

UC and Elsevier faced a UC-imposed deadline concerning open access of Jan. 31. That deadline has apparently been suspended and talks continue:

UC and Elsevier Negotiations Continue; UC Retains Access to Articles for Now

As of Jan. 31: The University of California and Elsevier have agreed to continue good-faith discussions for the time being. For now, access is expected to continue. Should we learn of any changes to access at UC, we will notify our community.

The University of California is re-negotiating its systemwide licenses with some of the world’s largest scholarly journal publishers, including Elsevier, to provide additional open access options for UC authors. 

In these negotiations, UC is seeking a single, integrated contract with each publisher that covers both the university’s subscriptions and open access publishing of UC research in their journals — what are often known as “publish and read” agreements.
