Sage and the Manipal Academy of Higher Education (MAHE) announce a transformative Open Access (OA) agreement to expand access to scholarly content and increase the visibility of research.
In order for Sage to publish your article in one of our hybrid or subscription journals, you must sign a Contributor License.
The below instructions will guide you through how to sign your Contributor License in Sage Journals: Licensing & Payment.
After your article has been accepted for publication, following the peer review process, you will be contacted with instructions and a link to Sage Journals: Licensing & Payment.
Some subscription journals charge authors page or publication charges to publish their article. There has been ambiguity when an article, from one of these journals, has any of these associated costs as well as open access (OA) as to what should be charged. Therefore, Sage is clarifying its policy on the subject (July 2022).
There are two ways an article in a subscription journal can publish OA, one is through requesting to publish your article OA, this is called Sage Choice, or the article may have been identified as part of one of our Open Access Sales Deals (OASD).
