Wiley Rolls Out Open Access Solution Oable to First 34 Customers - Knowledge Unlatched

"Wiley, a global leader in research and education, today announced its continued investment in Oable by making the innovative open access (OA) workflow management solution available to 34 customers. Oable was developed by Knowledge Unlatched, which Wiley acquired in 2021 to advance both organizations’ shared commitment to make open access simple and easy for librarians, researchers, and publishers.

In the past six months, Oable has signed a variety of new clients, including library customers across North America and Europe like Rowan University, Brandeis University, and the University of Bath. Additionally, Oable and Elsevier recently launched a pilot to simplify the librarian approval workflow for open access publishing among select institutions.

With this ongoing expansion, Wiley will also be migrating its current open access customers onto Oable, delivering efficiencies for its library customers and reducing administrative burden. By the end of the year, an estimated 2,200 Wiley customers will be utilizing the solution...."
