The Hague, 27 February 2023
Both these transformative agreements between the Meritorious Autonomous University of Puebla (BUAP) in Mexico start in 2023 and were made possible by Anouk Snijders, Accucoms’ Commercial Manager for Latin America.
For The Royal Society, BUAP is the first institution in Mexico and in Latin America to sign a Read & Publish agreement. BUAP researchers will have the opportunity of unlimited OA publishing without APC charges in all journals of The Royal Society, while also having unrestricted access to the full portfolio of journals, including the complete archive of over 350 years of research.
The agreement between Microbiology Society and BUAP also offers the institution unlimited fee-free OA publishing in all journals of the Society, as well as access to the entire archive of Society content, back to 1947. BUAP is the second institution in Mexico and the fourth in Latin America to sign a Read & Publish agreement with the Microbiology Society.
“For BUAP these agreements mean giving greater national and international visibility to the researchers of this university, and they respond to the expectations of intellectual development and the possibilities of growth of our researchers,” said Ing. Paola Adriana Rodriguez Leyva, Information Resources Administration Manager at the BUAP Central Library. “BUAP has been increasing its scientific production, and growing the number of publications in journals of international prestige will provide greater recognition to the research carried out in our institution.”
Mtra. Ana Jacqueline Valerio Venegas, Process Monitoring Manager at the BUAP Central Library, comments: “Increasing the visibility of BUAP researchers and scientific production in prestigious international journals can have many benefits for the institution and its members, such as greater recognition, prestige, and visibility of BUAP researchers in the scientific community; greater impact and dissemination of the research carried out; and increased national and international funding and support for BUAP, opening up new opportunities for the institution and its researchers. These new transformative agreements can contribute significantly to the intellectual development and growth of the institution.”
“We are very pleased to announce this new agreement with BUAP in Mexico – our first Read & Publish agreement in the region, and it demonstrates the reach of the Society’s model and will help us to further progresses our Open Access transformation,” said Graham Anderson, Head of Publishing Operations at The Royal Society.
Alex Chan, Journal Sales and Business Leads at Microbiology Society, comments: “BUAP is the second institution in Mexico to join our Publish and Read agreement through our local partner Accucoms. Our agreement enables corresponding authors at BUAP to publish accepted research articles Open Access without charge in Microbiology Society journals. Accucoms has been building on the success of our Open Access initiative in Latin America. We are confident that their excellent relationships with libraries, plus their ability to provide top quality local support, will enable more researchers in Latin America to benefit from uncapped, immediate and fee-free OA publishing in our journals through Publish & Read agreements.”
“It has been a pleasure to work closely with our long-time customer BUAP Mexico to show them the value of transformative agreements offered by our publishers, and I’m happy that they are among the first institutions in Mexico and Latin America to adopt these agreements and offer the benefits of free OA publishing to their researchers. It is exciting to see the growing interest in the region in Read & Publish / Publish & Read models, and I’m confident more institutions will follow BUAP’s example in the coming years,” said Anouk Snijders, Commercial Manager Latin America at Accucoms.
