Taylor & Francis is pleased to announce the publication of 32 new open access (OA) books on key global themes, including children’s welfare, global security, sustainability, and AI, through the collective funding initiative Pledge to Open. We’re also thrilled to confirm that the Pledge to Open initiative will run for a third year.

Pledge to Open supports the publication of books that are both free to read and free to publish for their authors. Through this collective funding initiative, pledging institutions enable worldwide dissemination of impactful research, which particularly benefits readers in resource-constrained regions and authors with limited OA funding.

24 institutions and consortia in Australia, Austria, Germany, New Zealand, Switzerland, UK, and USA pledged to support at least one of this year’s collections. Over half of authors who will see their book published OA through Pledge to Open are based in countries outside of Australasia, Europe, and North America.

Using data from the research database Dimensions, we did a deep dive to find out how many papers we’ve published by researchers from Australia and New Zealand, and see what sort of impact they have had.

From research on reducing energy insecurity in remote Australia, to a study on the misuse of consumer data, researchers from Australia and New Zealand have influenced policy papers from some of the largest and most influential organizations in the world.

We shine a spotlight on five of these impactful research papers, all published in the last three years. Take a read: https://tinyurl.com/ANZPolicyImpact

When data generated as a result of academic research is well managed and shared openly, it enables ideas to flourish, and allows for stronger, more rigorous academic debate. At Taylor & Francis we support the sharing of data generated during the course of a research project.

With the help of DataSeer, an AI solution provider, we discovered that across a sample of over 8,000 Taylor & Francis journal articles published in 2023, 52% included a data availability statement. This shows a very high adoption from researchers in data sharing. Read more in “Moving the needle on open data: A new study from Taylor & Francis”: https://tinyurl.com/MovingTheNeedleOnOpenData
