Renewal of the transformative agreements available through b-on

The publication quotas for 2026 under the b on consortium are now available.

Transformative agreements enable open access publication without the payment of article processing charges, under the terms established in contracts with participating publishers. The 2026 quotas have already been made accessible to all member institutions.

Publishers offering a limited number of articles typically reach their quota during the first half of the year.

In addition, Instituto Superior Técnico, Universidade de Lisboa, maintains agreements with other publishers through direct subscriptions.
