Publishing Workflow
- Eligibility is confirmed via corresponding author & institutional email address at submission
- Author should select Institutionally Paid Open Access / Permissions Release
- Re-use rights are also selected as part of this workflow
- ORCID for the corresponding author is required
- If the corresponding author changes their email address from their institutional domain to a non-institutional domain, their paper will no longer be part of the ACM Open Program, although authors may change their email address if they are no longer at the institution and do not have access to that email inbox anymore
- Although CC-BY is the default author license under ACM Open, the participating author has the choice to choose any of the Creative Commons license options or to grant ACM an exclusive right to publish. All authors publishing with ACM retain copyright of their work.
