CAUL Agreement Principles for Journal-Based Content, 2024:Caul Agreement Principles for Journal-Based Content • April 23rd, 2024
In alignment with broader initiatives to transition scholarly publishing towards more equitable and transparent systems that are globally fair and sustainable, CAUL presents the following principles. These serve as a foundational framework to guide both CAUL and publishers towards establishing sustainable open-access agreements. Publishers are expected to clearly demonstrate their adherence to these principles throughout their proposals and in the course of negotiations. Australian and New Zealand institutions contribute significantly to academic publishing through peer review, editorial services, and funding, and this must be reflected in the costs publishers charge for each of those activities1.
