Publishing with Springer Nature: tell us your view to inform the ongoing negotiations Special
Have your say to help us negotiate the best possible read and publish agreement with Springer Nature.
UK Universities are negotiating with Springer Nature with the aim to reach a sustainable and affordable read and publish deal. Read more.
Experts from Jisc will facilitate discussions with small groups of Cambridge researchers about your experience with the publishing process and how you get access to the materials you read. By taking part, you will help to shape the approach to negotiations and communications over the next few months. This will also be an opportunity to deepen your understanding of how the negotiations are conducted, the issues involved in academic publishing, and the way colleagues in different disciplines approach these questions.
