How to select OnlineOpen

1. Submit your article to a journal which offers OnlineOpen.
2. Once your article has been accepted by the journal, you will be asked to register or log-in to Wiley Author Services.
3. On your Author Dashboard ensure you have signed your Creative Commons license agreement. Need help? View our self-help guide.
4. Once your license agreement is signed, on your Author Dashboard, click the ‘Select OnlineOpen’ button underneath your article.

Fill out the OnlineOpen form. Under Institution Payment and Research Funding, check for your funder and institution in the drop-down list. If your funder or institution is listed, they have a Wiley Open Access Account and may cover your Article Publication Charge (APC).




Tip: If your funder or institution is not listed, they may still have open access funding available. You can check using our Author Compliance Tool.

5. If you have requested that your APC be covered by your institution or funder’s Wiley Open Access Account, your OnlineOpen form will be reviewed by your institution or funder directly. Find more information in our self-help guide.
6. That’s it! Your article will be made open access immediately upon publication. The open access icon and Creative Commons license signals to readers that the content is freely available to read, download and share.

Tip: As an additional benefit, all appropriate* open access articles are automatically sent to PubMed Central for archiving.
