Open Access and the Max Planck Encyclopedias of International Law

November 11, 2024

We are excited to share that we are aiming to convert the Max Planck Encyclopedias of International Law from paid subscription to a subscribe to open model.

Though common within journals publishing, this is a novel application of the subscribe to open model to a product other than a journal. 

If we meet our goal with enough customers choosing to renew their subscription by March 2025, then we will make the Max Planck Encyclopedias of International Law freely accessible for everyone from April 2025. 

This then repeats every year—if customers continue to renew, then it will remain open to all.
