OA Supporter Membership - CEUP

Some institutions may not wish to sign up to a book package, or may not be able to. However they might still want to support, and help to fund, the frontlist of Open Access monographs that CEU Press publishes. For these institutions we have created an ‘OA Supporter Membership’.

You can sign up to an OA Supporter Membership 'package’ for three years - this will help to fund new, frontlist OA monographs but you will not receive access to any backlist packages of book titles. It is simple and quick to join: just fill in the sign up form with the appropriate details and we’ll do the rest. Alternatively, if you are in the UK you can go via the Jisc Licence Manager, and if you are in North America you can go via Lyrasis' product pages. It's the same price whichever way you sign up. No further action is required from you once we have processed the payment.

The OA Supporter Membership fees are the same as for our book packages: library and institutional members are banded according to their size, as recognised by Lyrasis and Jisc.

The OA Supporter Package is the equivalent of one standard backlist package. You can also sign up to a Double OA Supporter Package (equivalent to two single packages combined) or a Triple OA Supporter Package (equivalent to three single packages combined) if you wish to make your investment go further. Just send us an email from the Contact page and we'll give you a price quote for that.

Our annual membership fees for this Single Package are:

Tier	Band	2025	2026	2027
Small	0-5,000 FTE	€386 / £331 / $468	€405 / £348 / $491	€1426 / £365 / $516
Medium	5,001-9,999 FTE	€882 / £772 / $1048	€926 / £811 / $1100	€972 / £851 / $1155
Large	10,000 FTE +	€1323 / £1103 / $1571	€1389 / £1158 / $1650	€1459 / £1216 / $1732

Membership is for a minimum of three years.

Shown in table are annual fees in EUR (Euro, €) / GBP (Pound Sterling, £) / USD (US Dollars, $), excluding VAT.

Due to rising publication costs, a 5% annual increase has been applied for annual payments. The slight annual rise in membership fees reflects rising inflation rates alongside rising production costs for publishers globally. The renewed fees allow us to continue to use membership revenue solely to produce new OA monographs, moving towards an affordable, sustainable model for the future of academic publishing. And while the rises are around 5%, in real terms they are no more than a rise of around $20 to $100 a year.

If you would like to prepay your entire 3 year subscription, please let us know. The 3 year prepayment option benefits from a fixed annual price with no price increase during the 3-year term.

Invoices for Europe and Rest of World are handled by Amsterdam University Press (our partner). Lyrasis, a trusted non-profit library sector partner based in the USA, handle invoices for North America, and invoices for the UK are issued by Jisc.
