Article Publishing Credits

What are Publishing Credits?

From time to time the library is able to negotiate "Read & Publish" deals, or "Transformative Agreements" with our publishers  for journals that we subscribe to. Generally speaking, this means that the publisher will provide either partial or full discount for publishing articles in a select range of their journals.

The current publishing credit deals the the library has in place are:

• For Royal Melbourne Hospital Staff:
  
  • A discount is available for BMJ Case Reports. For details on submitting your case report please see this user guide. To get the fellowship discount code please contact the library.
  • A limited number of publishing credits are available to be used in a range of Open Access Springer Nature publications. Once those credits are exhausted publishing credits will no longer be available.
    For more specific details on eligibility as well as information on how to apply to have your article covered by the publishing credits please refer to this page from Springer Nature Publishing, and specifically to this list of eligible journals and this authors guide.

• For Royal Royal Women's Hospital Staff:
