STM on access

Following a meeting of its publishing Heads of House and ratification of its outcomes by the STM Board, STM has adopted the following policy statements on access.

  • STM supports any and all models of access that are sustainable, and that ensure the integrity and permanence of the scholarly record on which progress is built.
  • STM does not support unfunded mandates that constrain scholarly authors or affect the sustainability of the publishing enterprise.
