Cambridge University Press dates from 1534 and is part of the University of Cambridge, furthering the University’s mission by disseminating knowledge in the pursuit of education, learning and research at the highest international levels of excellence.
Playing a leading role in today’s global market place, Cambridge University Press has over 50 offices around the globe, and distributes products to nearly every country in the world. Published titles are written by authors in over 100 different countries.
Open Access is changing the academic research landscape and Cambridge University Press (CUP) continues to be a leader among publishers with over 2,300 transformative agreements worldwide. CUP is offering MCLS members the opportunity to join the existing MCLS Read & Publish agreement.
Through a transformative agreement with Cambridge, your institution gains access to 400+ journals across a wide variety of disciplines. This includes perpetual access to all volumes published in 2023, plus shallow backfile access to journal archives throughout the year (archive access varies by publication). In addition, researchers will be able to publish Open Access in all hybrid and gold OA journals within the CUP Full Journals Package. APCs for Open Access articles are covered through the agreement with no additional or hidden costs.
As a non-profit publisher, Cambridge University Press works hard to keep prices low, and we encourage institutions of all sizes to reach out for more information and a personalized quote from MCLS eLicensing and Collection Resources at services@mcls.org or (517) 939-1382.
