Agreement Monitoring

Stay on top of every publishing agreement

Trying to get a clear picture of how your agreements are being used? Too often the numbers you need are spread across too many spreadsheets.

ChronosHub’s Agreement Monitoring brings that data together. All your agreements, from read & publish to membership discounts, live on one dashboard. It’s quota tracking, cost monitoring, and more, made easy.

Get clarity over the basics

For each of your agreements, you can clearly see which and how many articles have been published and how much of the quotas remain.

Free up your calendar

Delete those “Excel maintenance” calendar events for good. Give your team time to focus on more important strategic work. 

Budget for the future

With a real-time picture of your quotas and usage, you can make smarter decisions about your next publisher investments.

Customize and manage agreements with ease

Use the Agreement Manager to add and update all types of open-access (OA) agreements, including read & publish, discounts, and quota-based deals.

You can tailor messages to authors per agreement, link to additional resources, and update terms in real time. Journal title lists can be uploaded in bulk or edited manually. It all gives you full flexibility and control.

Consolidated data across publishers

Save time and admin frustration. Compile data from your different sources, upload it to ChronosHub, and you’re good to go. The data is presented in at-a-glance understandable visuals and figures.

You can update your data at any time, so you’re always up to date. And it’s all easily downloadable to plug into your reporting and other systems.

Dynamic, institution-specific reporting

ChronosHub sorts your uploads by institution. So you can generate reports with breakdowns by agreement and time period, for consortia and also per member.

This transparency supports better decision-making, improves compliance tracking, and ensures every stakeholder stays informed.

Get started with ChronosHub

The funding of open-access publications has more than doubled since the introduction of ChronosHub, since it’s much easier to use and process than the previous workflow.
