This guide presents a selective list of Law titles that currently have waived article processing fees.

Commerical publisers with waived OA fees

While many Open Access Journals that publish legal research do not require article processing fees, many commercial publishers require high article processing fees before making an article free to the reader.

The Canadian Knowledge Research Network (CKRN) has negotiated reduced or waived article processing fees for the following Law titles on behalf of the University of Windsor. Please visit Leddy Library's Licensed Open Access publishing rights page to learn how to take advantage of these offers.
