Transactions of the Royal Historical Society is now fully Open Access.

From 21 August 2024, all TRHS articles will be published ‘open access’ and freely available to read online.

This means that all articles accepted for publication in the journal will now be automatically published with a Creative Commons licence and freely available to read online. This will ensure that content published in Transactions can be shared, circulated and read by the widest possible readership.

There will be no charge to the author for publishing an article in this way. The costs of open access publication will be covered through agreements between the journal’s publisher, Cambridge University Press, and the author’s institution; or by payment of Article Processing Charges (APCs) from grant or other funds held by the author; or else waived entirely by the publisher, ensuring every Transactions author can publish and receive the benefits of having their work available Open Access.
