EUP flips 8 journals in expanded S2O programme

We’re thrilled to announce that eight of the nine journals in our Subscribe to Open programme have reached their revenue thresholds and will flip to Open Access for their 2025 volumes. We thank all of the institutions that have subscribed to these journals – their contributions allow us to make the excellent research that they publish freely available to everyone at no cost to the authors.

The 2025 volumes of the following journals will be Open Access:

• Afghanistan
• Corpora
• Film-Philosophy
• Gothic Studies
• Journal of Holy Land and Palestine Studies
• Journal of Qur’anic Studies
• Modernist Cultures
• Word Structure

This will be the second year of Open Access content for both Afghanistan and Journal of Holy Land and Palestine Studies. We’re very grateful for the continued support from all of the subscribing institutions who have made this possible.
