IOP Publishing joins forces with other publishers to make research publishing more inclusive and diverse
Open Physics
Increasing access, transparency and inclusivity across the physical sciences

OPEN PHYSICS?
Our contribution to open physics combines an evolving programme of publications, activities and policies that we believe will not only encourage and support increased access, transparency and inclusivity but do so in ways and timeframes that will serve the needs of the global physical science community.
As a learned society publisher, IOP Publishing is embedded in the physical science community, ensuring that our contribution to open physics will develop in dialogue and collaboration with the groups most central to its successful implementation, including physical scientists, librarians, partner societies and funders.
