ACM Open Access Publishing Model

Starting January 1, 2026, ACM will fully transition to Open Access. All ACM publications, including those from ACM-sponsored conferences, will be 100% Open Access. Authors will have two primary options for publishing Open Access articles with ACM: the ACM Open institutional model or by paying Article Processing Charges (APCs).

With over 2,600 institutions already part of ACM Open, the majority of ACM-sponsored conference papers will not require APCs from authors or conferences (currently, around 76%). To be included in ACM Open, the corresponding author must be affiliated with a participating institution. Authors from institutions not participating in ACM Open will need to pay an APC to publish their papers, unless they qualify for a financial waiver.

Understanding that this change could present financial challenges, ACM has approved a temporary subsidy for 2026 to ease the transition:

• $250 APC for ACM/SIG members
• $350 APC for non-members

This represents a 65% discount, funded directly by ACM. Authors are encouraged to help advocate for their institutions to join ACM Open during this transition period.
