Open publishing in Wiley’s fully open journals during the end of the year
16.12.2025
The article quota for Wiley’s Full OA journals under the FinELib agreement for 2025 has been depleted. However, you can publish your article for free under the quota for 2026.
FinELib’s Wiley agreement for 2025–2026 includes an annual quotas for publishing open access articles in both Wiley’s hybrid journals and Full OA journals. For Full OA journals, the article quota for 2025 has been used up, and authors publishing in Full OA journals will receive the following message from Wiley upon acceptance of their article for the remainder of the year:
Your request for the article publication charge to be paid by [Institution Name] has been denied. Denial reason: Your institution, funder, or society has run out of open access article funding and therefore cannot currently pay the article publication charge. If you have questions regarding the reason for the denial of your request, please contact your institution or funder.
If you receive such a message, sign the OA license and complete the article publication process only at the beginning of 2026 to ensure that your article is published openly and free of charge from next year's quota. And if you do receive an invoice for the APC fee for the article, do not pay the invoice.
Open access publishing in Wiley's hybrid journals will continue as normal.
