Tokyo University of Science Signs Multi-Year Transformative Agreement with AIP Publishing
Tuesday, July 21, 2020

MELVILLE, N.Y., July 13, 2020 /PRNewswire/ -- AIP Publishing, a leading not-for-profit scholarly publisher in the physical sciences, is pleased to announce that they have signed a multi-year "Read and Publish" agreement with the Tokyo University of Science (TUS) in Japan.

The agreement reflects the publisher's commitment to developing a transformative publishing model that adds value to existing journals subscriptions by offering open access publishing options for university-affiliated researchers. Since last year, AIP Publishing has partnered with academic institutions around the world to test and gather critical feedback in a Read and Publish pilot program. Tokyo University of Science is the first university in Asia to sign a multi-year transformative agreement with AIP Publishing.

As a result of the agreement, members of the TUS community will have access to even more AIP Publishing content than they do today. In addition, articles by corresponding authors affiliated with Tokyo University of Science that are accepted for publication in any of AIP Publishing's hybrid journals will be made open access without an article processing charge (APC). The three-year agreement runs from 2020 through 2022 and allows TUS to publish more than three times as many articles in AIP Publishing titles as they historically have at no additional cost.

TUS's vice president, Hiroki Fujishiro, said, "Our current mission statement is 'From Japan's TUS to the World's.' We would like to make it happen by contributing to the wide range of scientific disciplines, both in basic and applied research. This agreement ensures that the scientific advances published by researchers at TUS reach the widest possible readership by making their articles freely accessible to the global physical sciences community. Through this new partnership with AIP Publishing, I strongly believe that TUS will take strides towards becoming the world's foremost scientific research institution."

"Tokyo University of Science is a leading global and regional institution in physics," said AIP Publishing's chief publishing officer, Jason Wilde. "We are pleased to build on our excellent partnership with TUS to add the publishing component to the content access we already deliver to them," he added.
