IGI Global Scientific Publishing and Athabasca University Continue Collaboration Through Renewed Open Access Agreement

New York, NY, November 12, 2025 – IGI Global Scientific Publishing— dedicated to “Publishing Tomorrow’s Research Today” since 1988, has renewed its partnership with Athabasca University, a Canadian public research university, through an Open Access Agreement.

Through this agreement, Athabasca University faculty receive Article Processing Charge (APC) funding from their library to publish in IGI Global Scientific Publishing’s Open Access Journal Program, which includes nearly 200 journals across Business & Management, Scientific, Technical & Medical (STM), and Education & Social Sciences. By publishing Open Access (under CC BY licensing), faculty benefit from increased visibility, discoverability, and citation impact across hundreds of journals indexed in Scopus and Web of Science.

“We are pleased to continue our partnership with Athabasca University,” said Nick Newcomer, Senior Vice President of Sales & Marketing at IGI Global Scientific Publishing. “This renewed Open Access Agreement reinforces our shared commitment to removing barriers to open access and increasing the visibility and impact of scholarly research.”
