Dear Members of Istanbul Technical University,

The SAGE Premier Journals database, which we subscribe to within the scope of the Anatolian Universities Consortium (ANKOS), provides some rights for open access publications within the scope of the 2024 agreement. 

• - The SAGE Open Access (OA) journal package is offered with the SAGE Choice special package. This package covers 95% of SAGE journals.
• - For ANKOS member institutions with a SAGE subscription, the article processing charge (APC) will be GBP 200 instead of GBP 3000-4000.
• - This amount can be paid by the author, the institution or another funding organization. SAGE can offer alternative invoicing and payment methods to institutions and authors.
• - Authors at ANKOS SAGE member institutions will automatically be invoiced at the discounted price specified in the system when submitting their article.

Detailed information about SAGE Choice can be accessed from the link below:

Sage Choice journals consist of Hybrid journals in the Premier package. The list of journals to be discounted is attached for your attention. Gold OA journals are not covered by the agreement.
